When Eliza Jane gets to choose a pet, she wants something special, so the Cat in the Hat offers her a Gink (a cross between a gunk and a skink). Taking care of the Gink proves to be quite a challenge, but the real challenge comes when Eliza has to choose between keeping her new friend and returning him back to the jungle and his family.

King Lindy of Lime has a beard so long that no one knows just how long it is. Yertle the Turtle, the King's trusted advisor, suggests that a young jester named Elwood be sent to measure the beard. Of course, wacky hijinks ensue when Elwood meets up with King Noogle, Princess Mindy, and King Noogle's trusted advisor... Yertle?

The priceless Zubble-Wump egg has been in Megan Mullally's family for as long as anyone can remember, so when the Grinch steals it, she sets off with Horton to get it back.

Harried Dad Tidbiddle is a remarkably busy man with no time to spare, so when the Cat in the Hat tries to sell him a "Simplify-Your-Life-Machine," Dad is immediately smitten. Too smitten, it seems, because the more Dad keeps "upgrading" his new device, the less time he has to spend with his forgotten family.
