Description
What comes up must come down!
When Bear falls at Emily's feet, she is determined to get him back where he belongs. But Gravity keeps pulling Bear straight back down. So, Emily makes it her mission to defy Gravity and make the impossible, possible! She tries balancing him on a see-saw, making him a pair of wings, and even launching him into the air with a catapult. But how will she get him to stay in the sky?
This empowering picture book is about the forces that keep us grounded, and the equally powerful forces of determination, knowledge, and human ingenuity that allow us to fly.
