Words and pictures work harmoniously together in this magical picture book, which ably captures the incomparable sensation of flight. Smith writes with a light, expressive touch which, when combined with Tavares' soaring bright or dark-hued pictures, wonderfully convey ballooning's joys and dangers. Sophie herself is depicted with verve and bravery; her love of flight evident in her expressive features.
Delightful.
