Would you like a balloon?

Yes please, Elly. Can you make it big?

How big?

Even small questions are big when you're a kid. In this charming picture book, a little girl must decide how big she wants her yellow balloon to be. As big as a fishbowl or even bigger, like the moon? She has to decide quickly because it looks like the balloon has its own ideas.

'A very funny story ... Each page was a delight, informing the readers about the complex plight of the humble balloon' READPLUS
