“Uncle Doug, can you fly?” asks Zach. “Yes, Zach, I sure can!” exclaims Dougie. “Wow, that is so cool!” says Zach. “Zach, how would you like to go for a ride? It would be an adventure!” says Dougie. “Yeah, let’s go!” shouts Zach. “Don’t be afraid, just close your eyes and don’t open them until I tell you.” Dougie explains.
