The Twenty-One Balloons
Danny Says
Isn’t it great that the longest book I have recommended so far is a Newbery Children’s Book Award winner? I read this book in Mr. Hobbs’s seventh-grade reading class, and I loved it. I don’t remember why (I think it is about an island filled with the world’s greatest scientists, athletes, etc. – so that’s where Elvis went!). I noticed it was on sale at Amazon.com for 28 cents. Sally Struthers moment – for the price of a sip of coffee at Starbuck’s, you could read this delightful tale.
