Where Do Balloons Go?: An Uplifting Mystery Hardcover - 2000
by Jamie Lee Curtis; Laura Cornell (Illustrator)
In this thoughtful, comforting book by the actress-turned-author, a child wonders about what happens to a balloon that is let go, just as a parent would wonder about what might happen to a child once he or she leaves home.
From the rear cover
Haven't you ever wondered ...
Where do balloons go
when you let them go free?
It can happen by accident.
It happened to me.
Do they tango with airplanes?
Or cha-cha with birds?
Can plain balloons read
balloons printed with words?
When one little boy accidentally lets go of his balloon, his imagination takes him on its journey.
Jamie Lee Curtis's gentle and humorous exploration of the joys and perils of a balloon's life is whimsically brought to life by Laura Cornell's illustrations. From the best-selling author-illustrator team of Today I Feel Silly and Other Moods that Make My Day comes another delightful mystery about letting go.
Includes cool reusable stickers and two play areas!
