Scooby Doo! Howling on the Playground:
Reader’s Theatre
Scooby Doo, Shaggy and the gang are building a playground.
Shaggy: Oops, Scooby! I almost nailed you!
Edna Spring: Stop all this noise! What is going on here?
Drew Zooka: We are building a playground.
Edna Spring: Playgrounds are noisy! I don’t want one here. I’ll find a way to stop it. Or my name
is not Edna Spring.
Next morning, the gang comes back to work.
Drew Zooka: We’re not letting Edna Spring stop us! We need to start on the sandbox.
Shaggy: Did someone say lunch box? Let’s take a lunch break, Scooby.
Drew Zooka: Lunch? But it’s nine o’clock. And we have work to do!
Edna Spring: No, you don’t! I’d stop building if I were you!
Drew Zooka: I know, I know. You don’t want a playground here.
Edna Spring: That’s not it. Werewolves are haunting this place. I heard howling all night long.
This is not the place for a playground.
Daphne: Werewolves?
Fred: This sounds like a case for Mystery, Inc.!
Velma: There is one way to find out about these werewolves.
Fred: There’s a full moon tonight.
Velma: We’ll stay in the park tonight. And see if any werewolves come.
That night in the park:
Shaggy: There’s nothing going on here! Scoob, let’s grab a late night snack and go home!
Scooby Doo: Reah!
Velma: Not so fast!
Daphne: Would you stay for a Scooby Snack?
Shaggy and Scooby gulp down the snacks.
Shaggy: Still hungry! Time to go!
Howl: Awhooo!
Shaggy: Is that your stomach grumbling, good buddy?
Scooby: Rope!
Shaggy: Then it’s the werewolves! Like I’ve had enough playtime at this playground!
Howl: Awhooo!
Scooby: Rerewolf!
Scooby and Shaggy run. They race around the swings. One of the swings hits Shaggy in the
head.
Shaggy: Ouch!
Howl: Aaa—ooooooh!
Shaggy and Scooby can’t get away!
Velma: Scooby! Shaggy! Stop playing around!
Shaggy: Velma! Help!
Scooby: Relp!
Shaggy and Scooby decide to jump on a pile of sandbags.
Shaggy: We can jump onto those sandbags!
Scooby: Rone, Too, Ree.
Shaggy: Jump!
Howl: Aaa Roooo!
Shaggy: Like it’s the werewolf again!
Scooby shakes his head. It isn’t a werewolf.
Scooby: Ruppies!
Shaggy: Puppies? Well, okay Scoob. You found some puppies. But what about those
werewolves?
Velma: Those puppies are the werewolves.
Fred: Don’t you see? They are howling because they are cold and hungry.
Edna Spring: More noise!
Drew Zooka: Yes. I came to check on things here. What’s going on?
Velma: Scooby found the werewolves.
Daphne: But they’re only puppies!
Edna Spring: Puppies! How sweet!
Scooby: Redna’s puppies.
Velma: Great idea!
Fred: Edna, would you like to give these puppies a home?
Edna Spring: Would I ever! And you know what? A playground is a great place for puppies to
play! I’m going to name the puppies Daphne, Fred, Velma, and Shaggy.
Velma: Not Scooby?
Edna Spring: There’s only one Scooby-Doo!
Scooby: Scooby-Dooby-Doo!
