4 ⭐This book is a labor of love. You can see it on every single page of the book. This book is completely wordless and it‘s about a little girl who goes to the museum with their adult and they get told the balloon has to stay out. Through the comedic panels we follow the little girl as she visits the real-life art exhibit, and we follow a museum docent as they‘re trying to get the balloon once birds send it flying.

LibrarianRyan This book could be read repeatedly and come up with new scenarios for what each picture represents. And seeing how the docent in is mimicking what the girl is seeing in the museum, priceless. 1y

#BloomingBibliophiles Day 8: Glasser‘s attention to detail in this wordless picturebook is amazing. It is what could be aptly described as “brimful of curiosities.” While the little girl happily tours the museum – she remains #blissful(ly) unaware that her balloon is causing a ruckus around town, with the poor Museum Officer probably regretting his decision to be the balloon‘s nanny for the time being.
