On a sunny summer afternoon, Willow, our young adventurer, watches the beautiful clouds as they drift across the bright blue sky. As she watches, they begin to take shapes. First, there is a puppy, then a horse, then a kitten and more. Inspired by the animals as each one passes by; she decides she must know where they come from and how they are made. Fueled by her desire to learn, she sets off on a grand adventure to find the answers. At the end of her trek, she arrives at an amazing town and meets the people there, who not only make the clouds, but are willing to share their secrets, helping make memories to last forever.
