It was a nice summer day and today is the day Scootaloo gets to fly by herself for the very first time, with the help of Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. Since she wants to be like her idol, she has to try her very best.

"Ok, Scootaloo. Remember the things I taught you about flying?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Yes, Rainbow Dash. I do. I'm ready to go." said Scootaloo. "Alright. Now, let's head to the cloud to start your flapping." said Rainbow Dash as she takes her to the cloud to begin her flying. "Make sure you go nice and slowly. Don't want to go too fast." said Fluttershy. "I won't." said Scootaloo. She takes a deep breath and starts flapping her wings quickly. "That's it, Scootaloo. Keep flapping." said Rainbow Dash. Scootaloo pants as she keeps flapping her wings and keeping herself from the ground. "You're doing great. Keep it up." said Fluttershy.

Suddenly, Scootaloo felt faint. So, she stops flapping and begins to fall. Rainbow Dash immediately zoomed down and saves her just before she reaches the ground. "Scootaloo, are you okay? You gave us quite a scare." she asked. "I dont know what happened, but I felt really hot like really quick." Scootaloo explained. "Maybe you tried too hard. We'll try again next time." said Fluttershy.

While comforting Scootaloo, the Book of Disney is calling them. "What's that noise?" Fluttershy asked. "It's the Book of Disney. Looks like we have another adventure in our hooves." said Rainbow Dash. "Can I come too?" Scootaloo asked. "Sure." said Rainbow Dash.

They went to the throne room of the castle to see what the Book of Disney has in stores. Twilight opened the book and reveals the next chapter. The next story is Dumbo. She begins to read,

"Once upon a time, there is a famous circus that's been traveling throughout the country. By that time, storks have been delivering babies for expecting mothers in the circus. Except for one elephant named Mrs. Jumbo. She wants her baby as her own, but didn't get one. One day, a fellow stork came to the train while traveling and delivers a bag to her. She decides to name her baby, Jumbo Jr. When she opens the bag, there was an adorable baby elephant with gorgeous blue eyes. Everyone was amazed when he arrived, until he sneezed. When he did, it's revealed he has really big ears. Because of that, the elephant ladies were making fun of him. Mrs. Jumbo made sure no one would make fun of her baby, so she slams the door shut and cradles Dumbo in her trunk. As they went to their destination in Florida, everyone went in the circus to see the animals. When the kids saw Dumbo, one kid was making fun of his ears. Mrs. Jumbo didn't like it, so she pushes Dumbo away from the kids. But, the kid keeps teasing him like blowing at him in the ear. Mrs. Jumbo went enraged at this and is only doing it for her baby. The Ringmaster and the circus members tied her up and puts her in a cage where she can harm no one. This makes Dumbo very depressed, what's even worse is that the elephant ladies blame him for what happened. They never liked him on the first place. Luckily, he gets help."

Once Twilight is done reading, she and her friends including Scootaloo into the book.

...

They all find themselves at the circus in Florida.

"Wow wow wow! I can't believe we're at the circus! This is amazing!" Scootaloo shouted. "I don't like the circus. They're so mean to their animals." said Fluttershy. "I don't think that's true, Fluttershy. I'm sure there's some circuses are nice to animals." said Applejack. "I'm surprised this place isn't that big. Ya know?" said Rainbow Dash. "Do you think we should find Dumbo? That poor thing needs someone to take care of him." said Twilight. "Yes, we should. And I think I know where he is." said Rarity as she saw a tent for elephants.

So, they went inside the tent where a baby elephant was crying all alone while the other elephants were ignoring him. "Oh, that poor thing." said Fluttershy. "He needs someone to comfort him. And that will be us." said Scootaloo as she went to Dumbo, but didn't because he was hiding from something elephants didn't like. "Hey, what gives?" she asked. "I don't think he's scared of you, Scootaloo. Look." said Applejack as she watches a mouse scaring away the female elephants. "Who the hay is that? And why is he scaring the elephants?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"There. That'll teach them." said the mouse. "Excuse me, sir. Can you give us an explanation why you scared those elephants over there?" Twilight asked in a stern way. "Well, pardon me ma'am. The elephants were making fun of that poor baby elephant who doesn't have a mother. What'd you want me to do? Stare at him and make a pity out of it? I don't think so! By the way, the names Timothy Q Mouse." the mouse explained. "I'm Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends. Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie. This one right here is Scootaloo." Twilight introduced. "Hello." said Scootaloo.

"Say, were you guys trying to comfort the little guy?" Timothy asked. "Yes, we are. The Bok of Disney told us that we need to help him in order to reunite with his mother." said Rarity. "Really? Ain't that swell. Mind if I come along? I promise I won't do anything stupid." Timothy promised. "Sure. After all, every hero needs a companion." said Scootaloo. "Well, we do need to comfort him since he misses his mama." said Applejack. "Don't worry, Applejack. I'll comfort him. Pinkie, hand me a peanut." said Fluttershy. Pinkie gives Fluttershy a peanut and said, "I'm sure he likes peanuts." "Don't worry, elephants love them." said Fluttershy as she goes to Dumbo who is hiding in a pile of hay.

She went to him quietly and said, "Hello there, sweet thing. You seem really scared. Want to come out so I can make you feel better?" Dumbo shook his head no. "No? Why not? I can tell you want to be with your mommy, but I can help you reunite with her again." Fluttershy promised. Dumbo still doesn't trust her. "I don't think he trusts you, Fluttershy." Rainbow Dash commented. "He will, just give him some time." said Fluttershy. Dumbo was sniffing the peanut she was holding. "Oh, you like that? Well if you want this peanut, you have to come out." said Fluttershy as she drags the peanut so that Dumbo can come out, but he went back to the hay. "Come on, sweetie. Come on. Please come out. If don't come out, I won't give you this peanut." said Fluttershy. Dumbo sucks the peanut into his trunk and ate it. "Alright, fine. You want this, I guess I won't help you be with your mommy again." said Fluttershy as she turns away from him.

But suddenly, Dumbo came out and starts sniffing Fluttershy if she has more peanuts. "There you go. You're such a good boy." she said as she pats his head. Dumbo nuzzles her with his head. "Aww, aren't you the sweetest little thing? Don't worry, we'll take good care of you." said Applejack. Dumbo touches her with his trunk. "So, what can we do to help him be with his mother?" Rarity asked. "I don't know, probably do something at the circus I guess." said Scootaloo. That gave Timothy an idea. "That's it! We're going to give him an act for him at the circus. The crowds are gonna love him." he said. "But, we don't know if he has talants that'll amaze everyone." said Twilight. "Don't worry. I'll tell the ringmaster all about this little guy." said Timothy. "If Dumbo doesn't get to be on stage, can I take over?" Scootaloo asked. "He has to. It's his only chance to be reunited with his mother." said Applejack.

"Wish me luck, ladies. I'm gonna make this kid a star." said Timothy as he sneaks into the ringmaster's tent.

...

The mane six, Scootaloo, and Dumbo watches as Timothy whispers into the ringmaster's ear, telling him everything about the elephant. After he left, the ringmaster had a great idea. And so the next night, Dumbo received an act for the show which he was very proud of.

"Ok, Dumbo. This it it, you ready?" Fluttershy asked as she prepares him for the show. Dumbo nods at her. "Great. Make us proud." said Fluttershy. Scootaloo watches the show from the curtain to tell Dumbo when his cue shows up. "I hope this works." she whispered. "Don't worry, Scootaloo. It will." said Applejack. "I guess I have to put him on top of the elephants." said Rainbow Dash. "Shh! Listen!" Timothy whispered as he hears the ringmaster introduced Dumbo and Rainbow Dash. When the curtains were lift up, the audiences cheered for them. They both waved at the crowd. Their act was to put Dumbo at the top of the elephants and be the flag. "This will be done in ten seconds flat!" Rainbow Dash announced. "Go, Rainbow Dash! Woo!" Scootaloo shouted.

Rainbow Dash cracked her hooves and lifted Dumbo, but due to him being an elephant and is heavy, she has a hard time keeping him in the air. Dumbo was worried about her. "I'm fine. I can do this." Rainbow Dash promised as she flew up to the top slowly. But suddenly, one ditzy elephant saw her colors and shouted, "Look. Rainbows." She grabbed her tail with her trunk, causing Rainbow Dash to accidentally drop Dumbo and all of the elephants to fall to the ground. "Oh no." Pinkie muttered. "This wasn't part of the act, was it?" Twilight asked. "Probably not. Man, I hate those elephant girls. Their talking is so obnoxious." said Timothy. "We have to get them off the stage." said Rarity as she went to the stage to get Rainbow Dash and Dumbo.

"Oh my gosh, that was awful. I think one of the elephants pulled my tail and caused the havoc." said Rainbow Dash as she rubs her injuries. Rarity heals her with her powers. "Please don't tell me there's another act that stars Dumbo." Scootaloo pleased. But, sadly, another act did star Dumbo in a clown show, which is worse. "A clown show? Really? That sounds humiliating." said Twilight. The clowns grabbed Dumbo and forced him to be on stage. He did not like it one bit. Scootaloo tried to save him, but people think she was in the act.

Everyone was laughing at him and there were so much noise. "What was the ringmaster thinking? Dumbo hates loud noises." Fluttershy asked.

...

After the show was over, Dumbo was in tears and the mane six are thinking another way to help him be with his mother again.

"There there. It's gonna be alright, you'll see." said Fluttershy. "We can't make him go on stage again, he'll get humiliated again like a fool." said Twilight. "But he has to, it's the only way for him to be with his mother." said Timothy. "He needs another act. Something that can make the audience have their jaws dropped." said Rainbow Dash. "But, how? We tried everything. Dumbo can't handle this anymore. He's just a baby." said Scootaloo. "I know that babies get comforted by their mothers." said Fluttershy. That's when Timothy got an idea. "Hey, girls. How about we pay his mother a nice visit?" he asked. Dumbo loved the idea and was excited about it.

So, they went to her cage to visit her. "Mrs. Jumbo. Somebody to see you." said Timothy as Dumbo's trunk reaches out for his mother. Mrs. Jumbo's trunk reaches for him and starts to cradle him in her trunk. The moment was so soothing that Scootaloo was in tears. Mrs. Jumbo begins to sing,

(Baby mine, don't you cry

Baby mine, dry your eyes
Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part
Baby of mine

Little one when you play
Don't you mind what they say
Let those eyes sparkle and shine
Never a tear
Baby of mine

From your head to your toes
You're so sweet, goodness knows
You are so precious to me
Cute as can be
Baby of mine

Baby mine
Baby mine)

After she's done singing, the mane six and Dumbo have to leave and said goodbye. Mrs. Jumbo waved goodbye back.

...

Dumbo was still depressed about his mother in a cage. "Oh, Dumbo. Come on, chin up. Your mother would be proud of you if you go on stage for her." said Timothy. But, it didn't cheer him up.

"Maybe some water will do the trick. Why don't you have some, Dumbo? It'll make you feel better." said Applejack. Dumbo went to the bucket and started drinking it. But, what they don't know is that one of the clowns accidentally poured alcohol in the water. Since Dumbo was drinking a lot of it, he began to have to the hiccups and got iffy. "Hey, what's wrong with you?" Rainbow Dash asked. "It's not the water, is it?" Twilight asked. "I don't know. I'll check." said Rainbow Dash as she took a few sips, but she acted like Dumbo. Pinkie did the same thing and likes it. "No, don't drink it. It'll get you iffy." said Applejack.

But, they didn't listen. Everybody drank the water and she was forced to have some. Now, that everyone is drunk, they begin to see weird things. "Hey, guys. Why are the elephants pink? They look so weird." Scootaloo asked as she begins to see pink elephants. Timothy freaked out and asked, "You see what I see?" The pink elephants were everywhere. They all came in shapes and sizes, doing random things which scared the mane six. Dumbo got scared too.

The pink elephants were doing so much that they all exploded.

...

The next morning, they all woke up on a 100 foot tall tree. "What in tarnation? How did we get so high on the tree?" Applejack asked as she hung onto the branch, but everyone fell down.

"It must be that drink we had last night." said Twilight. "I think Dumbo flew us here." said Scootaloo. Everyone looked at her like she's crazy. "What? I didn't drink much last night, okay?" Scootaloo asked. "Did you just say Dumbo flew? Scootaloo, you're a genius." said Timothy. "Really? Why?" Scootaloo asked. "Dumbo can fly. Nobody has ever seen an elephant fly, so it can be an act for him. It'll surprise everyone." said Timothy. "But how?" Rarity asked.

Rainbow Dash pulls her feather out of her wings and gave it to Dumbo. "Here, my flying is really magic. So, this might help you fly." she said. Dumbo smiled. "Let's give it a try, shall we." said Pinkie. Everyone begins flying and were encouraging Dumbo to do the same. "Come on, Dumbo. You can do it." said Fluttershy. Dumbo begins to flap his ears and his feet were off the ground. He was flying. The mane six could not believe their eyes. "I don't believe it! You're flying! You're really flying!" Timothy shouted.

Now, everyone flew all the way to the circus to show everyone Dumbo's talent.

...

So later on that night, Dumbo was still holding on the feather Rainbow Dash gave him while on stage doing the same act he did last night.

The mane six were watching him from above, hoping he can fly again like this morning. "Come on, Dumbo. You can do it, I believe in you." Scootaloo shouted. Dumbo took a deep breath and jumped while holding onto the feather. But, he accidentally lost it while falling. That doesn't stop him from flying because he didn't land on the trampoline. He was flying all over the place. The crowds went crazy over on what's happening.

The ringmaster was in shock as well. Scootaloo threw some water at him for mocking Dumbo. Dumbo became the most popular elephant in the circus.

...

Later on, Dumbo became reunited with his mother and thanked the mane six for helping him. "Well, girls. We better get going." said Twilight. "Well, it's been an honor to be with you ladies. Now, it you'll excuse me. I have some autographs to sign. Farewell, girls." said Timothy. "Bye, Timothy." the girls shouted as they disappeared.

...

The Book of Disney brought them back to Equestria safe and sound.

"Wow, that was so much fun! Thanks, guys." said Scootaloo. "I'm glad you had a great time." said Rainbow Dash.

...

Later on that night, Fluttershy went to the Disney Journal and begins to write her lesson. She wrote,

"What is learned today is about encouragement. Friends need some encouragement to receive his or her goals. It's lonely and hard to do things you don't know. All you need is someone to cheer you on."
