"I am right here, Pip," she said softly. "You have strong wings. Just watch me. " Mother Bird hopped to the edge of the branch. She flapped her wings—flap, flap, flap—and soared into the air. She circled back and landed right next to Pip. "Now you try," she said. "I will be right beside you. " Pip took a deep breath. He stood on his tiny bird toes.

A little bird named Pip learns to fly with his mother's help and discovers how brave he can be.

Pip was a small blue bird with soft, fuzzy feathers. He lived in a cozy nest made of twigs and grass. The nest was high up in a big oak tree. Pip liked the nest. It was warm and safe. But today was a special day. It was time for Pip to learn how to fly. Pip looked down. The ground seemed very far away. "I am a little bit scared," Pip chirped to his mother. His mother gave him a gentle nudge with her beak. "I am right here, Pip," she said softly. "You have strong wings. Just watch me." Mother Bird hopped to the edge of the branch. She flapped her wings—flap, flap, flap—and soared into the air. She circled back and landed right next to Pip. "Now you try," she said. "I will be right beside you." Pip took a deep breath. He stood on his tiny bird toes. He stretched his wings out wide. He looked at his mother and saw her happy smile. He felt brave. Pip hopped off the branch. For a tiny second, he felt like he was falling. But then, he started to flap. Flap! Flap! Flap! Suddenly, Pip wasn't falling anymore. He was flying! The wind felt cool on his feathers. "I'm doing it!" Pip chirped. "I'm flying!" He flew to the next branch and landed softly. His mother flew down to join him. "I knew you could do it," she said. Pip felt very proud. He wasn't scared anymore. He was ready to see the whole wide world.
