About this item

Every day can be an adventure. Especially if you bring balloons.Ever wondered what it would be like to ride a carousel right off its platform? As Emma discovers, all it takes is a handful of balloons and a very kind polar bear to show you the way. This soaring story of friendship, between a carousel bear and the little girl who noticed him, will take readers to the arctic and back - in time for bedtime, of course - and remind them anything is possible. Even flying.
