    A childhood favourite

    This is one of my favourite children's titles. An refreshing story, this fairy tale has it all. Fun, fantasy, love, a princess, an evil villian, a whole lot of balloons and great artwork come together to create magic.

    When I saw this book on the reader's choice list, I was thrilled. I haven't thought about it in years, but as a child, this was one of my favourite stories. Wonderful, colourful illustrations and a charming story line. This definately holds a warm place in my heart.

    The Balloon Tree is an awesome book, with phenomenal pictures! The story is great! I absolutely loved it, and I'm a 13-year-old! I strongly recomend this book, along with any other of Phoebe Gilman's books--namely, The Gypsy Princess.

    I read this book myself when i was young, and let me tell you... It's got great artwork, and it's a wonderful fantasy world for a child who loves to use their imagination! It's a treasure!
