Sector 7

A school trip is a chance to makes friends, to learn, to see the world in a new way & if you're a kid who can draw, it's even more!

We've all drawn on fogged-up windows - did we draw octupii or tropical fish? When we went to the top of the Empire State Building did we hurry into the Observatory only to find it swathed in fog - zero visibility?

Did we meet a cheerfully, impish cloud who introduced us to his friends? Then, when the strengthening sun burnt off the fog, did we jump on that friendly cloud which floated us off to Sector 7, where the clouds were being made?

I have always loved a David Wiesner book. His thousand-word pictures entice me from page to page, making up dialogue, telling the adventures, describing the delightful scenes.

One of his very best, whimsical, imaginative & completely absorbing. Great gift material!
