When Horsefly and Honeybee pick the same flower for a nap, a fight ensues. "It wasn't pretty," and they each lose a wing. Unable to fly, they are easy prey for Bullfrog, who saves them for dinner. In their fear, they grasp one another and flutter their wings—"and up they went!" Amusing oil-on-paper illustrations match the charming, undidactic text.
