Characters:

Centipede
Grasshopper

Spider

Earthworm
Ladybug

Silkworm

Glow worm

Plot: The Peach has rolled off the cliff into the ocean with some very hungry
sharks. The sharks start to gnaw at the peach with their sharp teeth. James quickly

has to find a way to get the giant peach off the water while all the insects are

panicking.

Setting: The sea (with vicious and hungry sharks)

What happens: After crashing down the hill, the peach rolls right off the cliff and

into the water with those hungry and vicious sharks. All the insects are panicking
as they see the sharks crashing the waters, and gnawing at the peach, but James

manages to calm them down, but now they need to get away from the water before

the sharks eat the peach. James swiftly looks around and sees a seagull then he
gets an idea. His idea is to simply tie the seagulls to the peach until they start

lifting the peach. The Earthworm needs to be bait for the seagulls, but he

constantly refuses. Eventually, the insects and James manage to make the
earthworm finally agree to be the bait. The giant Earthworm lures in the seagulls

while the Silkworm and Ms. Spider make string ropes to capture the seagulls.

James uses these ropes and ties them around the seagulls' necks. Finally, with
more than 500 hundred seagulls tied to the peach, it finally lifts off the water and

heads to the sky. A whole other journey awaits them as they go higher and higher...
