Little Flap
Learns
How do friends depend on
each other?
Read how Little Flap depends
on his friends.
22 Little Flap was happy living in his nest.
His friends, Fluff and Tuff, lived in the
nest next to him. Every morning they sang
songs together. Their parents brought them
worms to eat.
One day Fluff asked, “Can we get our
own worms?”
Tuff said, “We can if we learn to fly.”
Fluff said, “Yes! Let’s learn to fly.” Little Flap peered over the edge of
his nest. It was very high up. When he
looked down, the ground seemed very far
away. He felt scared! He was too afraid to
tell his friends about his fear so he kept his
feelings a secret.
Fluff said, “Let’s practice flapping our
wings. It will make them strong. Watch.”
Tuff and Little Flap watched Fluff.
Then they copied her actions.

, Soon it was time to fly. Little Flap could
no longer keep his feelings a secret. He
asked, “Will I fall? I don’t want to get hurt.”
Tuff said, “You can depend on Fluff and
me. We’re your friends.”
Fluff said, “I have an idea. We will go
first and show you how. Then you can try.
If you fall, Tuff and I will rescue you.”
Tuff said, “Yes, we can save you!” Tuff
and Fluff jumped out of the nest. They flew!
Little Flap looked down nervously. He
still felt uneasy, but he felt braver with his
friends. “Okay,” he said. “Let’s try!”
25 The three birds stood together on the
branch. They counted, “One! Two! Three!”
Then they flapped their wings fast and
jumped. Little Flap lifted into the air.
“You're flying just right!” said Fluff.
“You're flying perfectly!” said Tuff. All three little birds landed
in a patch of soft, green grass.
Little Flap said, “Now I know I can
always depend on you, Fluff and Tuff!
You are my friends.”
Then he found a big, juicy worm.
and shared it with his friends.
Now Little Flap likes flying!
