The Singin' Kid is the second story from the second episode of Season 3 and the 80th story overall of PB&J Otter. In this story, the gang have a singing contest at the local fair. Jelly sings her song, and wins. For winning, her song would be the highlight performance on the final day of the fair. She then begins to think of herself as a big star, so she practices her song constantly. But when the day comes, she loses her voice. Only Butter (the leader of The Funky Band) and her friends know how to make her show a smash.
