    Fluffy clouds in sky

This is the story of young boy who can see wonderful stories in the cloud formations, but also a tale of a bank heist and the effort to get away by jumping out of a plane (remember this true story from some years back?). The robber thinks no one will be watching the sky. Avi is an award-winning author who started Breakfast Serials because he had enjoyed reading stories in the newspaper when he was younger.
