Little Magpie, a girl wandering the streets of France, got involved in the life of Pierre's family during a theft mission instigated by others. The family is being ordered by the king to invent the world's first hot air balloon before the British. This encounter changed the little magpie's life. After experiencing adventure after adventure, the little magpie played an increasingly important role in the invention of the hot-air balloon. The world's first hot-air balloon successfully flew over Paris, France, in the presence of the king! The story is inspired by the true event of the first manned flight over Paris in a hot air balloon built by the Montgolfier brothers in the 18th century.
