Lizzy can fly. She does it every now and then to make her brother smile. He has fits sometimes, and only Lizzy can snap him out of them with her special skills and her smile.
She made him promise not to tell, though, because Mommy and Daddy said it was dangerous. They said people would take her away if anyone knew. They'd take her away and they might never give her back. Because people are curious, and controlling, and afraid.
Lizzy isn't scared of flying, but she is scared to fly. She doesn't want to be taken from her home, her family. But she risks it for her brother. She'd do anything for him. Because that's what big sisters do.
