Theme: A little girl’s version of an unusual class outing becomes a lesson on appreciating and having fun with different kinds of animals.
This is a tale of a school trip to a peaceful farm which turns wild when Jimmy's pet boa constrictor escapes.
LeVar takes viewers to an exotic pet shop where he meets a tarantula and a boa constrictor. He then goes to a livestock show where he learns unique facts about farm animals and watches events including sheep shearing, goat milking, and showing sheep.
