Nyla enjoys talks with her family and friends about the natural changes in her hair. Fascinated by the comparisons of her hair and skin shades to the weather, she explores the possibilities throughout the day. An encounter at school with a boy named Bobby causes her to question how she feels about her reality, self-esteem and her relationship to the world. With the help of her mother, father, and friend, she gains the reassurance she needs to trust her beauty, heritage and self-confidence.

A little boy named Derrick, his sister Trina and their dog Mickey enter a world turned upside down. They fly throughout the world visiting places they had never seen, playing games as they enjoy the landmarks, monuments and attractions. The children discover various weather, natural habitats for animals that haven't been discovered and see the view of the world from outer space and beyond. They realize in the end that whether they were upside down, flying through the sky, facing their fears or challenges, they were not alone and they could find solutions to returning the world to right side up.
