Minnie May is
afraid of her own Shadow, but Ziggy will help her through.

Minnie May has
tried everything to escape her Shadow. It is in the water, under her bed,
reaching from trees, and in the skyscrapers. It is only when she makes herself
really small that she can find an escape. But Ziggy isn't afraid. His shadow is
big. Ziggy shows Minnie May all the wonderful things that you can do with your
shadow. It can tell time, it can make puppets, and it can even go flying
through the air. Minnie May likes her shadow now.

She doesn't want
to hide from it anymore.
