Hassett, Ann and John Hassett Come Back, Ben. PICTURE BOOK. Holiday House, 2013. $14.95. Content: G.
Ben grabs onto the string of a giant red balloon. Together, they travel through the window and up, up, up, past mountains and rainbows until they reach the moon. Once Ben returns, his pockets filled with moon rocks, it is time for the balloon to go on a new adventure.
A simple, cute story that is especially good for beginning readers. While the illustrations are rough and simplistic at times, they have some cute details and the story itself is fun -- especially the twist at the end.
Pre-K, EL (K-3) -- ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Caryn
