Episodes
Small insists that he is taller than Twiba, but she just knows she is taller than Small. Small is determined to prove her wrong and tell her so eye-to-eye - which means he needs to be tall enough to reach her branch. To help Small do this, Big makes him a Tallerator. This is a stilt-like contraption that makes Small taller - although when Small is practicing he has a tendency to fall over, using Big's feet as a crash pad. Finally (and when Big's feet are rather sore) Small is tall enough to be face to face Twiba. He struggles over to her tree - only by now Twiba has forgotten what they were talking about. And Small can barely move with the stilts and arm extensions and stiff padded helmet - he wonders, really, what he's doing. He thinks that sometimes it's better to be Small. And as Big points out, Small is a very good small. Big invents a Tallerator for Small - but it's not easy being so high up!
One evening, Big and Small are catching fireflies in jars. They release them all, of course, but one flutters back into their bedroom later on. This firefly wakes up Big and Small because his blinking light is flickering on and off furiously, as if he is agitated and wants to tell them something. Luckily, Twiba can understand the firefly's blinks and explains that when Big and Small were catching the insects, they managed to separate two good friends who now cannot find each other. Big and Small, feeling responsible, realize they need to attract the missing fly. They do this by swinging a searchlight out of the bedroom window and blinking out a message to the skies. The lost firefly reads the message and flies down to join her missing friend. Friendship, Big and Small agree, is very important even to the smallest creature.
Small has a space in his scrapbook that he wants to fill with a picture of himself and his best friend, Big. They try to take a photograph by themselves, but it's tricky so they ask Ruby to help them out with her instant camera. There is only one shot left in the camera. Ruby prepares to take a picture of Big on the Swing with Small bungee jumping into the frame beside him. A practice run goes perfectly but when it comes to taking the real photo, Small crashes into Big, Big goes tumbling backwards, Small boings past Ruby, Ruby trips up pressing the shutter as she stumbles. They wait for a tense second until the photo emerges. Totally without planning or posing it turns out to be a great photo of both Big and Small and can be stuck proudly into the scrapbook.
Big announces that his celery is ready to be picked. Small thinks this is a cause for great celebration and announces that it is Celery Day. And Big should write a song in honor of the crispy vegetable. Big starts to write a song but unfortunately gets stuck after the first five notes. However hard he tries, he just cannot reach note number six - Small decides to help his friend by dressing up as a figure of inspiration - a celery costume, to be exact. But this doesn't work, either, and it looks like there will be no song. So Big and Small decide to eat the celery anyway. But as they crunch away happily, the crunching inspires a tune and soon Big and Small are singing out the best ever Celery Day song.
Big and Small want to prove whether the Gwelf is real, as Small thinks, or just the fictional character that Big believes. They set up a machine in the garden to record the Gwelf when or if he comes into their garden that night. Ruby, however, secretly uses the machine to record her latest song. Just as the song ends, Big and Small hear Ruby in the garden. She panics and accidentally causes the machine to malfunction. Her song is played backwards and sounds really weird. But Ruby denies touching the machine, which causes Big and Small to think that it was the Gwelf who had been in the garden. Big and Small prepare their Gwelf-detecting equipment and go marching off. Ruby is worried about her friends going into the Mysterious Woods at night and she tells them the truth. Small is shocked that Ruby would tell a fib about seeing a Gwelf. Ruby apologizes but says if they will listen to her song properly they will be more understanding. Big mends the machine and Ruby's song is played: it's a jolly number about how much she likes living with Big and Small in the house and the fun they all have together. Small forgives Ruby for fibbing and they are all friends again.
Big and Small are opposites who encounter adventures and misadventures due to their differences, teaching friendship and tolerance through humor and meaningful stories.
