和父母親一起爬山的艾伯特,一不小心從懸崖摔了下去。正當危急之際,雲上的小孩念起咒語,接住身體變得輕飄飄的艾伯特。他們玩得開心極了,又是跑,又是跳,又是游泳,又是畫畫。直到有一天夜晚,艾伯特從「雲床」上看到了下面城裡的燈火,他突然好想自己的家和他的小床……
When Albert falls off a mountain top he's rescued by the Cloud Children, who are as light and airy as feathers and play amongst the rainbows and storm clouds up in the sky. But soon Albert feels homesick and begins to wonder how he will get home.
