MISS ROBERTS' HANDY GUIDE TO FLYING
Watch the birds. Do you see how they mock you? How they giggle at your land lumbering entrapment? As they flitter through the skies, flirting with the treetops.
"Aeroplane! Aeroplane? Ha!" they cackle "That's not REAL flying."
"You can't feel the air rushing through your wings in an aeroplane!"
Can you hear them laughing now?
How cruel they are. How unforgiving.
Are you going to stand for this?
No longer! With
MISS ROBERTS' HANDY GUIDE TO FLYING
you too can zoom through the air,
Caress the clouds, tease the tree tops,
ride the wind, and eat small flying bugs.
