This airborne adventure takes readers ballooning over lands near and far, all the way to the stars. The singalong song on the accompanying CD keeps spirits high, while the rhyming and playful text introduces all sorts of settings and vocabulary-building words.

Susan Reed is a musician, storyteller and writer who believes that music and story have the power to broaden people's understanding of the world around them. She has also recorded the popular Barefoot titles If You're Happy and You Know It! and the upcoming title Over in the Meadow. Susan lives in Massachusetts, USA with her husband and three children. Rachel Oldfield graduated from Brighton University with a BA in Illustration. Her work illustrates her belief that pictures of a timeless and enchanting quality nurture the children of today, while helping them to retain an authentic experience of childhood. Rachel works as a children's muralist and decorative artist. She and her family live in South Gloucestershire.
PreSchool-Grade 1—Vibrant, cheery spreads illustrate this fun, imaginative song by a folk musician and singer. Three children sail in a hot-air balloon over land and sea, near and far, through the clouds and to the stars. As with many songs turned picture book, the refrain ("Up, up, up, up in a balloon./Up so high I can touch the moon..."), which flows nicely when sung, becomes repetitive and tedious on the page. The accompanying CD features two instrumental versions as well as a pleasing, folksy rendition by Reed, and musical notations are appended in the book. An additional selection for picture book and CD collections, especially where other titles in the "Singalong" series and Reed's albums are popular.—Rachel Kamin, North Suburban Synagogue Beth El, Highland Park, IL
