Filipa has always wanted to soar above the clouds, so she decides to build a flying machine. She tries several different designs, but none of them manage to get off the ground. She’s about to throw in the towel when Hop tells about a similar experience he had building the Diner’s slide, and how he persisted and eventually succeeded. Filipa decides to keep at it and then, with some inspiration from some birds outside her window learning to fly, she builds the machine and flies.

HOP with his diverse group of friends encourages young children to embrace their individuality. Together they show us the powers of friendship and kindness as they navigate the mud puddles of life. Created by Marc Brown, creator of Arthur!
