The little frog eagerly wants to learn how to fly. Surely, the humans know how to fly without wings. So, the little frog is taking off for an adventure. It is visiting a large research center in the city, where it is meeting with various scientists. They are showing it how humans can take off into the air using knowledge about biology, technology, chemistry, and physics. During its journey, the little frog is getting inspired by science and is undertaking various ambitious attempts to realize its dream of flying. Unfortunately, it is not that simple and many of its trials are failing...
