      It was late, late at night, deep in the

      dark forest. Bear was standing next to

      the lake, with a glum expression on

      his face. Owl spread out her beautiful

      white wings, and silently glided down

      towards him.

      “What’s up, Bear?” she asked.

      “I need you to help me out, Owl,”

      said Bear. “I guess it might sound a bit

      crazy, but my dream is to able to fly.”

      “Bear wants to fly!”

      All of the animals were amazed by the news, and decided

      to meet up immediately.

      “A flying bear?” croaked Frog. “That’s impossible!”

      “Maybe not, if we all work together,” said Ant.

      Wolf nodded and said, “I think we should try.”
