A short story in an old world style folktale, about a bright young girl named Mazel, who has grown up in quite unusual yet wonderful circumstances, Mazel has been raised by a crow family. Although her home life is wonderful (you would be surprised how loving crows can be), it is not easy fitting in with the townspeople. After hearing the news of an upcoming town dance, the crows come together to make their dear little Mazel an exceptional gown, made from their very best feathers, but after the dress is ripped apart by the townspeople, the crows seek revenge by covering the town in a dome, thus blocking out all sunlight. Mazel must find a way to bring the crows and the townspeople together, and she will do so by making an invention.
