Bookroo's summary

Temina faces a dilemma: her mom insists she can only bring one doll on their flight. Unwilling to choose, Temina devises a secret plan to smuggle all her toys aboard. Once airborne, she reveals her hidden companions, delighting other children who miss their own toys. Her act of kindness transforms the flight into a joyful adventure, and her generosity is unexpectedly rewarded, leaving a lasting impact. How will Temina's cleverness and compassion change her journey and those around her?

From the publisher

A classic Munsch tale with a fresh new look! Temina is excited about taking a trip on an airplane, and super-excited to include ALL of her toys and dolls on the trip as well.Until mom says: “You can bring just ONE doll.” Impossible! How is she going to pick just ONE? The answer is, she doesn’t. Temina hatches a top secret plan to bring the toys onto the plane right under her mother’s nose. Once everyone is safely aboard the plane, Temina opens her bag and out pop all her travelling companions. Word spreads quickly to other children on the plane, who feel lonely without their own dolls. Temina is happy to lend out her treasures, and saves the day. Her good deed is felt all across the globe and her generosity is rewarded in the most surprising way!
