On the train ride to visit his grandpa, or Papa, Henri is only interested in his game. But then George the dog steals Henri´s hat upon arrival, so Henri makes chase and finds himself in front of a trunk full of hats. Henri tries on each hat . . . and imagines himself a race car driver, a sea captain, a flying ace, and more! Papa finally catches up to Henri and George, and that´s when Henri hears Papa´s stories, real stories, about racing, sailing, flying, and more! As Henri heads home, he looks up at the stars and begins to dream . . . of being just like Papa.
