Flick's got more than a running race to worry about when her little sister Birdie's in a wishing mood. How can she keep everything under control and avoid their secret getting out? It's school sports day and Flick is ready to race! So is Dad. He's been training for the parents versus teachers event. There will even be a news crew filming the day. But excitement often leads to baby Birdie making wishes and soon Flick's got more than a running race to worry about. How can she make sure her team wins fair and square when Birdie starts meddling with the most important event of the day?
