Jayde is an adorable jaybird with a tiny left wing and a big voice. Although it's not easy for her to keep up with the others, that doesn't stop her from doing what she loves...singing! The thing is , she only shares her beautiful songs with her best friend Olivia the Owl. Come fly away with Jayde as she gradually builds up the confidence to spread her wings and sing loud enough for the whole forest to hear.
