One day, a dinosaur woke up. He had slept for a long
time in a cozy cave. He looked outside and found that all
of his dinosaur friends were gone. He was alone.
This young diplodocus was called Doomore. He went for
a walk and soon became friends with a bird named Chipper.
 "Watch me fly," said Chipper. "This is lots of fun. . . ."

 "I can fly too," said Doomore.
|
But his new friend did not believe him.
"How can you fly? You have no wings and you’re too big."
Doomore decided to show the bird how he could fly.
He stood on top of a rock. He waved his legs in the air
to get ready to fly. Then, he jumped.
