The whole record, in order, with what each song is about. Nine of the twelve have their words here; the three remixes use the words of the songs they came from.

1. 01First WingsA small bird takes its first flight, wobbling the whole way, and gets off the ground.
2. 02Tailwind (Up, Up, Up)Flying is better with friends, so the whole gang catches the same wind together.
3. 03The Little Blue PilotA bedtime telling of the whole journey, from first flight to wheels down and sleep.
4. 04Read the StormBrave is not never being scared; it is reading the storm instead of fighting it.
5. 05Little Brave Heart (You Can Do It)Sung to one child on a hard climb: one little breath, one step, and you will not fail.
6. 06Higher Than the CloudsBreaking through the grey into open sky, with nothing left to hold you down.
7. 07Wheels DownTurning for home by choice rather than exhaustion, and finding the porch light on.
8. 08Wingtips and DewA quieter look at flying: wings for the doing, prayers for the why.
