**Jabari is inventing a machine that will fly all the way across the yard But making it go from _CRASH_ to _WHOOSH_ will take grit, patience, and maybe even a little help from his sister.**

Jabari is making a flying machine in his backyard "It'll be easy. I don't need any help," he declares. But it doesn't work Jabari is frustrated. Good thing Dad is there for a pep talk and his little sister, Nika, is there to assist, fairy wings and all.
