Imagine if your baby sister could make wishes come true… It' s school sports day and Flick is ready to run! So is Dad. He' s been training for the parent– teacher race. But excitement like this puts baby Birdie in a wishing mood. Soon Flick' s nerves are jittery – and not just because of the competition. How can she make sure her team wins fair and square when Birdie starts meddling with the most important race of the day?
