Once upon a time there was a little girl who wanted to fly. She would dream about flying every night when she went to sleep. She would actually imagine herself flying to school every morning. Up, up, up and away she would go. With the wind blowing through her hair, she would fly through the air with the greatest of ease.

“I’ll ask Santa,” she said to herself. “Santa can do anything. Santa will bring me anything my little heart desires as long as I have been a ‘good girl.’ And, I’ve been a really good girl.”
She wrote Santa a letter. In this letter she asked Santa for Flying Powder. “If Superman can do it, I can do it,” she said to herself. She shared with Santa every little detail about the joy and freedom of flying and how it rocked her world. She reminded him that she had been a really good girl this year. The only thing she wanted for Christmas was Flying Powder!
