Illustrated by
Robert Goldstrom.
This lilting poem describes a boy's dream journey as he and his companions sail the nighttime skies: "In a dream the full moon was a yellow balloon. / We followed its trail and grabbed on to its tail." Constellations come alive and interact with the traveler until he sails home. The deep-blue-hued pages contain memorable images, including smiling clouds and a genial moon.
