I'm just a kid who's four.

Each day I grow some more.

I like exploring.

I'm Caillou.

So many things to do.

Each day is something new.

I'll share them with you.

I'm Caillou.

My world is turning,

changing each day,

with mommy and daddy

I'm finding my way!

Growing up is not so tough,

except when I've had enough.

But there's lots of fun stuff.

I'm Caillou,

Caillou, Caillou, I'm Caillou.

Eh heh heh heh heh...

That's me

Come on kids.

It's Caillou storytime.

What's the story called, Grandma?

It's called

Caillou Isn't Afraid Anymore.

It all happened when Caillou was three years old.

Mr. Hinkle lived next door.

Lots of children said

there was a ghost in his scary old house.

Mr. Hinkle's house

sure looked spooky...

...and so did Mr. Hinkle.

Why Caillou. What's the matter?

It's Mr. Hinkle. He's scary.

Why do you say that?

Mr. Hinkle is scary.

Look. He wants to catch me.

He's not there,

and besides, I know Mr. Hinkle,

and he's very nice.

Why hello there, Caillou.

Moooommmyyy.

Poor Mr. Hinkle felt sad

when he saw Caillou run away.

Don't be frightened.

Mr. Hinkle came over to say he was sorry

you were scared.

He's a really nice man.

I don't like him.

I think you're just afraid of Mr. Hinkle

because you don't know him.

Hello... can I come in?

Come in, Mr. Hinkle.

Caillou, Mr. Hinkle would like to... Caillou?

Oh but... where did Caillou go?

I don't know... he was here a minute ago.

Oh boy.

I think he's playing hide and go seek,

and I love playing hide and go seek.

Ready or not, Caillou. Here we come.

Now where oh where could he be?

Caillou. Where are you?

Shhhhh, Gilbert, they'll hear us.

Oooop...I think Caillou's hiding downstairs.

We're getting warmer.

I wonder if he's in here?

I don't see him.

No, he's not here.

Let's check another room.

There's only one place left

where Caillou could be.

I think I'm getting warmer... and warmer...

Caillou forgot all about being scared of Mr. Hinkle.

Aha.

Well, I'm glad to see you two are friends now.

I want to play again.

I'd like that very much, Caillou.

And this time, I'll hide and you can seek.

I like you, Mr. Hinkle.
