Karate Kakapo

Karate Kakapo loves karate more than anything---more than kung fu, more than judo, more than taekwondo. No one at her dojo tries harder or practices more. The running kicks, the jumping kicks, the side kicks---she has mastered them all. But Karate Kakapo is at a disadvantage: kakapos can't fly, and it seems that no amount of practice can help her conquer that elusive flying kick. Karate Kakapo comes to discover that sometimes coming at a problem from a different perspective helps you to solve it.
