Pippy's Wish
"Please don't drive faster than I can fly. And I'm a flying machine--precise and super fast. Just ask Maddie Ryan, the author who created me. Here's a sample of my flying expertise."
Pippy twisted, she turned, and she wiggled her toes inside her shoes. Propelling herself on her back, she faced the ceiling and whistled. “Well, pluck my feathers and paint me purple. Thank you, thank you, ma’am,†she squealed with pure delight.
She heard Lucy’s subtle laughter.
Pippy turned her head to the left and exploded into a cheer, “Wooooo weeeee.â€
Through the reflection in the sky-blue ceiling she watched her wings turn violet. “Wow.â€
“….to glide and balance,†Lucy said. “Pippy? I’m giving you instructions. Are you listening?â€
“Huh?†Pippy asked, turning on her side. She drifted toward the stained glass mile-high filing cabinet.
Kicking her legs she bobbed her head up and down, which only made her soar faster.
“Pippy," Lucy said rather loudly. "I said, use your arms….â€
Pippy was now wedged between the cabinet and the yellow wall. Good thing, heavenly walls were made of velvet.
