When Donut, a fluffy, scruffy unicorn with a colorful horn spots a bird in the air, she thinks, Why can't I be up there, too? And so, she jumps! Off of a log and even a trampoline. But thump! She falls down to the ground. After many attempts at flight (including wings fashioned out of sticks), Donut schemes with the other animals in the field, and finally comes up with an ingenious and imaginative solution. Finally, her perseverance pays off-- and Donut flies!

Después de varios intentos de volar (incluyendo construir alas hechas con palos), Rosquilla conspira con los otros animales en el campo, y finalmente se le ocurre una solución ingeniosa e imaginativa. Por fin, su perseverancia da sus frutos... y Rosquilla vuela!
