Bear wishes he could "fly up high" like the birds he sees in the sky. The kid-friendly text includes lots of ear-pleasing onomatopoeia ("Swoopy swoopity swoop...Whirly whirlity whirl"). Approachable watercolor illustrations show the large brown bear frolicking with four children at a carnival--where he's able to fulfill his dream by riding high on the roller coaster.
