Squiglet tries to help Ozzie the ostrich to fly by taking him to the circus.

Squiglet is a monster who lives in a plain white world, which he populates using a magic crayon. Ozzie the ostrich wishes he could fly - but he just can't.

Squiglet uses a straight line to squiggle an ostrich called Ozzie who wishes he could fly like all his other bird friends. Squiglet squiggles Ozzie's home on the African plain, and sure enough, there go all the other birds, flying by. 

Squiglet tries to help by squiggling him an aeroplane. Ozzie thinks this might be the answer but even when he's swooping through the clouds, he still knows that it's not the same as how his friends fly and it's bit noisy too! When they land, they spot an elephant flying a big, red kite. That gives Squiglet an idea - maybe Ozzie can attach himself to the kite! But even though Ozzie manages a few little airborne moments still he comes back down to earth every time the wind drops. 

In the end, the Squiggle Pad gives them the clue - they need a circus! Squiglet squiggles one, and when they go inside the big top tent, they see just what Ozzie needs - a flying trapeze! Soon, all his friends arrive to watch Ozzie swinging through the air. He's Ozzie the Incredible, the world's one and only flying ostrich.
