The Dragon's First Flight

Flicker’s wings were as gold as a sunset, and today they were shaking. He stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down. His mom gave him a little nudge. 'Don't worry, Flicker,' she said. 'Being brave starts in your heart, not your wings.'

He jumped! For a second, he just tumbled through the air. But then he remembered what his mom said. He took a giant breath, spread his wings wide, and stopped falling. He was actually flying!
