<p><em>A Beautiful Flight </em>Excerpt:</p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">Now that Hazen was feeling nice and cozy, he began to think about </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">what he might like to do on this beautiful morning. The little hawk </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">gazed out at the field surrounding the oak tree. He felt soothed by the </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">rippling movement of the grass. The field almost looked like an </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">enormous ocean. As the breeze danced in the field, the grasses </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">responded, creating swirling circles and waves. Hazen smiled as he </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">watched.
</span></p>
<p><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">“The world is so full of such beautiful sights,” Hazen thought to himself. </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">“I should just go explore today, and just focus on what an amazing </span><span dir="ltr" role="presentation">place this world is. I’ll take a little flight – a little sight-seeing tour!”</span></p></blockquote>
