The sun had yet to come out to play in the little garden of Honeycombe Hill. Even the songbirds who wake the Beezles up each morning, are still sound asleep.
The only noise that can be heard is the buzzing of a beezle, but who could it be?
If any little boys or girls were listening,they would know that it was Zubby! Zubby flies backwards and sounds like this :zzzb! zzzb! zzzb!
Today Zubby has his first flying lesson. He wants to fly like all of the other Beezles because flying backwards can be very dangerous! Zubby is always bumping into things like trees and flowers and toadstools!
"Oh dear, oh dear, I'm so nervous!" Zubby said to himself.
"Why did I agree to do it? I haven't slept all night and I just know I'll get it all wrong... everyone will laugh at me...I wish I wish I was like all of my friends, why oh why do I have to be different?" he wondered.
Just then Zubby hears the happy sound of the songbirds. It's time to go to the village shop and get his surprise present. All of the other Beezles asked Mrs Bee to get something especially for Zubby, but he has no idea what it might be. Can you guess what it is?
"Good morning Mrs Bee. I'm here to collect my surprise present" Zubby said with excitement.
"Good morning Zubby, are you nervous?" Mrs Bee asked.
"Nervous? I didn't sleep all night!" yelled Zubby.
Mrs Bee handed Zubby his present and told him not to worry. Zubby pulled the brightly coloured wrapping paper from the strange shaped object. Have you guessed what it might be?
"It's a beautiful purple safety hat!" exclaimed Zubby with a smile.
Mrs Bee nodded. "We thought it might make you feel safer if you had a safety hat on"
"Thankyou so much!"said Zubby "I didn't know you all cared so much. I think my first flying lesson might be fun after all!"
As Zubby made his way through the garden to the flying school, he wondered why he hadn't thought of getting a safety hat before now. It was much less painful when he bumped into things!
As Zubby approached the Flying School he is surprised to see all of the other Beezles waiting for him to cheer him on! All of his friends were there; Bizzy and Buzzy, Uncle McBuzz and even Bazzil!
"Thanks for my present everyone!I'm sure it will help me!" Zubby giggled as he chapped his new safety hat with his chubby little fist.
"Go on Zubby! We know you can do it!" everyone cheered as Zubby lined up at the starting line. His heart was racing so fast he thought it might burst!
"Oh please please please let me make it to the finish line" said Zubby.
The flying instructor reassured Zubby and gave him some advice.
"Now now young Zubby, don't be nervous. I will be right beside you all of the way. Look straight ahead and keep your eye on the finish line"
As Uncle McBuzz fired the starting pistol Zubby almost jumped out of his clothes! He got so confused that he spun round and round almost crashing into the instructor!
It all starts to go horribly wrong as he zooms and zooms and spins up and down, round and round like a merry go round. Zubby was getting very dizzy!
He could see the faces of all of his friends going round and round and realised that the instructor was yelling for him to go back.
Zuuby managed to spin round and fly backwards to where the instructor was standing.
"Climb on my back Zubby" said the instructor.
Zubby climbed up onto the instructors back and could actually see where he was going! What fun! Zubby lets go and tries to do it himself, and crashes down to the ground bumping his head!
"Where am I? why are there stars flashing round my head?" Zubby whimpered.
Zubby looked at all the faces around him and could see that everyone was worried. No-one was laughing.
"Are you alright Zubby? Just as well you had your safety hat on! Let me help you up"Mrs Bee said softly.
"Sorry everyone... I let you all down.." Zubby sobbed.
"Dont' be a silly Beezle!" said Mrs Bee "don't you know that we all love you just the way you are? If you fly backwards it doesn't matter, at least you get to where you want to go!"
"Yes Mrs Bee!" cried Zubby "You're right! So I'm different and it doesn't matter! I am a Beezle and I can FLY!" Zubby yelled.
As Zubby flew off into the distance his screams of delight could be heard throughout the garden.
"Weeeeeeeeeeee! Look at me everybody! I 'll bet no-one else can fly backwards!"
Everyone laughed and cheered! At least Zubby was a happy little Beezle, even if he did fly backwards!
