I Want to Climb a Tree.

'''"I Want to Climb a Tree." '''is the third episode of Bonobono (2016).

Synopsis
Bonobono attempts to climb a tree, and receives advice from an unlikely source.

Plot
Bonobono is standing on a path in the forest, observing a large tree. He considers what it would be like to climb it, and recalls a time in which he tried to climb a tree in the past, but wasn't sure what to do. He says that he could start climbing the tree, but that he needs to be able to follow through on it.

Bonobono starts to climb the tree, but panics and freezes partway up. He forces himself to continue, but before he can climb further, Raccoon comes up to him and mocks Bonobono's way of climbing trees.

Raccoon brings Bonobono to a tree that is outfitted with many branches, making it optimal for climbing. He decides that it still needs more branches, however, and gets his father to do so. Bonobono trips as he approaches the tree, causing Raccoon to mock him again. The two begin to climb the tree together, and manage to reach the top.

Bonobono marvels at the scenery he can see from his high vantage point. He considers the difference in what he was able to see before, when he was on the ground, compared to where he is now. Raccoon points out that a bird can see much more, and that a worm can never hope to see much at all. This makes Bonobono consider the different views of the world, and wishes that he could experience the way other animals see the world.

Raccoon's father gives Bonobono a speech about how he shouldn't worry about his limitations. Bonobono's continued questions frustrates him and causes him to descend from the tree, however. He parts with the remark that a life spent trying many things may not be so bad. Bonobono agrees, looking thoughtfully at the tree.
