Horatio is a proud blue jay who loves to show off, but his aerial acrobatics make him hungry. When he spots a group of animals eating from a field of sunflowers, he decides to join them. The generous flowers happily offer Horatio some of their seeds, so Horatio eats and eats and eats. He doesn't stop until just one sunflower seed remains. What will Horatio find when he returns to the field next year? How will he make amends for the harm he has caused?
