What is When the sky was too low about?

Once upon a time, the sky hung far too low. Clouds had nowhere to go, birds could not fly and grown-ups had to bend and stoop wherever they walked. Determined to fix things before they grew up and became adults too, a group of clever children set out with an extraordinary plan. But lifting the sky brings an unexpected surprise: sparkling stars appear above them, creating the beautiful night sky we know today.
