Sid the puppy sets out for school one morning and is astonished when a happy feeling lifts him right off the ground. He can fly! Sid twirls through the sky like a doggy-shaped balloon, but his pleasure is spoiled when he gets to school.
Dogs can walk and jump and run, his teacher tells him, "but dogs don't fly". Sid tries to prove that he can indeed fly, but he is too unhappy and just flops to the ground.
The walk home is a lonely one for the puppy, but his understanding dad shares a secret with him ...
This simple, inspiring story will captivate both children and adults with its gentle lesson about the possibility of achieving the extraordinary.
