To get them, she must travel to the nursery rhyme world and take a test given by four characters from the four farm rhymes in the farm rhymes book. Hope agrees to go but asks what she should do about her parents.

Later, Hope travels, via magic key and VCR, to the Magic Library and asks Booker T about the farm rhymes book. He asks her why she wants to know this, And reveals it's because she is desperate to defeat Vlue and the HiT Circus right away. Booker begins to tell her that all the books in the library are magic, but the farm rhymes book and other nursery rhyme books in the library are very strong in magic because of all the magic that Mother Goose, Stella and the league of authors and illustrators put in to protect the books and make them more magical for the children in the kingdom and around the world. Hope asks if she can go in to the farm rhymes book once more and Booker gives her his blessing. Hope hugs the bookworm and jumps in to the book. As she's transported, Hope transforms in to her Barney Hunter form.

Arriving at a pasture not too far from a small English village, a little girl is seen crying. She is Little Bo Peep, the first test master. As usual she lost her sheep and doesn't know where to find them. Hope reminds her that if she leaves them alone they'll come home faster and way their tails behind them. Bo responds that it's been an entire your since she's tried that and it hasn't worked and is to the point of letting her go on to Boy Blue's test. Hope is persistent and tells her she isn't giving up until she gets to the final rhyme. Bo smiles at this and asks to look for her sheep as her test. If she finds her flock successfully, she will pass the first part of the exam. It's not long before Hope finds the sheep... But before she can lead them home a dark wolf appears and she has to fight it. Using Crystal Twilight Flash she temporarily blinds the wolf before he takes all the sheep. Leading the flock home, Hope creates a barrier with her Crystal Star Wand to protect the sheep from any more danger. Bo is overjoyed and gives her the nursery rhyme styles of courage, determination and persistence. She lets Hope go to her next task which is at a farm being run by a family but their top shepherd Boy Blue is fast asleep again. Hope asks what she can do and is asked to try to musically get them out of the corn and meadows. Hope has a bright idea. She takes the Crystal Star Wand and turns it in to a full size rock band, Purple Imagination. She sings a cover of her favorite song "Rainbow Coloured Espoir" and gets the sheep and cows to listen. Then she turns the guitar in to a flute in a total Pied Piper style. Suceeding, Boy Blue realizes that he fell asleep yet again. Hope comes over to him and tells him he deserved a day off, she took care of the cows and sheep. Boy Blue is so impressed that he gives Hope the nursery rhyme style of music and happiness. Hope thanks him and dashes off before Boy Blue can tell her to find a place to sleep for the night.

Later, Azalea explains that when her hen first arrived she realized that she wasn't like the other hens she saw. She started cleaning the house and in return for Azalea's kindness, she started to lay nine or ten eggs a day and it's why the gentlemen come to see her. Hope wonders about this carefully for a while.

That evening, Hope learns that both Azalea and her hen are the test masters for the final part of the test and asks them to allow her to take her exam.
