Plot
Little Miss Somersault is so acrobatic she doesn't sleep on a bed, no, not Little Miss Somersault! She sleeps on a tightrope! Every morning she gives an aerobics class to Little Miss Splendid, Little Miss Greedy, and Mr. Lazy. They don't do well. Then, Little Miss Magic flies by. She thinks Little Miss Somersault needs to be taught a lesson. She makes Little Miss Somersault unable to turn somersaults.
The next day, a miserable Little Miss Somersault meets Little Miss Curious, who asks her why she can't turn somersaults anymore. Then Little Miss Magic returns her to her original form. Then she does a somersault and cuts in line. Little Miss Magic teaches Little Miss Somersault another lesson.
The next morning, Little Miss Somersault can do even better. Then she goes outside to find all her friends doing acrobatic stunts. Then she realises Little Miss Magic had done everything.
