When the two of them discover that a neighbour's chicken farm is really a factory farm, they both want to stop it.

I Can Fly is a story about a young bluebird who learns that being disobedient can likely lead to trouble, physical pain and heartache. Bluey is an adorable, yet mischievous tree-bird who finds himself locked away in a cage where he eventually has time to think about the problems he has caused himself, his friends, and his mother.

Bluey learns from the consequences of his behavior. First, he understands that rules are made to protect him, and second, that by doing what is right he can remain happy and free.

Galdone has already proven many times over that he is perfectly at home with those traditional nursery tales that are still preschoolers favorites, and his expressive, unassuming style just right for their very young audience. Kirkus Reviews
