Synopsis

Mr Mumble has eyebrows so extravagantly large and hairy that one day a gust of wind catches them and sends him soaring skywards. Once airborne, Mr Mumble discovers that he loves flying and grabs the chance to see the world from on high. However, once his tour is complete, he can't find a way to land his 'flybrows'! The solution to this problem adds even more humour and charm to this delightfully silly story.
