Three Magic Balls

(4) PS Three rubber balls magically change into gigantic bouncing creatures, escorting a boy on a fantastic adventure and saving a plane from crashing. In a motif familiar from Strega Nona, the boy must blow a magic whistle to turn the creatures back into balls again. Egielski's trademark hard-edged, colorful images popularize this strange tale, which amuses but lacks heart.
