Then Bernard’s friends began to fly.

When he was a baby, he didn’t know he was different.
Look,
Orla!
I'm a bat!
Life was simple. And fun!
Whooo!
One by one, the other birds left in search of new places.

“I’ll learn to fly soon, won’t I?”

“Of course you will,” said Orla.

“I’m flying!”
SNAP! TWANG!
Then he wondered if it might be better g

“I feel very sad and I’m not sure why!”

The animals told Bernard their problems.

at the top of
the food chain.
Bernard didn’t feel sorry for himself anymore.
And all the hugging had made his wings feel strong.
Maybe even strong enough for . . .

Yo. Bernard!
Oh, hi,

Bernard discovered that helping the other animalshad given him something he hadn’t expected:
new friends!
