Once upon a time, there was a horse named Hoppy who loved to jump. One day, while out for a run, Hoppy stumbled upon a group of animals having a dance party. A chimp named Charlie invited Hoppy to join in, but Hoppy was more interested in the nearby pond where a group of birds and frogs were singing.
A fish named Fin swam up to Hoppy and asked why he wasn't dancing. Hoppy replied that he wanted to swim with the birds and sing with the frogs. Fin told Hoppy that if he could jump high enough, he could join the birds in the air.
Hoppy was determined to make it happen, so he practiced jumping every day. Finally, the big day arrived and Hoppy made a huge leap into the air, soaring high above the pond. The birds and frogs cheered as Hoppy joined in their sing-along. From that day on, Hoppy was known as the best jumper in the land and always sang with his new bird friends whenever he was feeling blue.
