A red balloon floats down from the sky, entrancing a curious bear. Ultimately, inevitably, the balloon proves less "huggable" and "squishable" than the bear anticipated, with predictable results. The bear feels bad, but the appearance of the moon bathes the bear in moonlight and forgiveness. See also: A Fox Found A Box by Ged Adamson aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"When the gift of a balloon floats into Bear's life, the two companions embark on a journey of discovery as small as a clearing in the forest . . . and as deep as the sky"-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Our hero is a sweet little bear, who one day chances to come across a red balloon. (Why are they always red? If you don’t have “99 Luftballons” in your head, you are not as old as I am.) The bear is enchanted by the simple pleasures of playing with a balloon, and proceeds to show his new playmate his home.
But the balloon is only a balloon, and the inevitable happens. The bear is devastated, and devastatingly, heartbreakingly, blames himself. He is miserable until the bright moon shines a light on the situation, and the bear can be at peace.
I’m not sure I can recall a picture book that tackles the emotion of guilt and its sneaky lies. But author Matthew Burgess and illustrator Catia Chien have written a whopper of one that manages to be gorgeous, and wise, and loving, and gentle. This book is a must-have for school and home libraries – highly, highly recommend. ( )
