Description

A charming story for the very young or early readers. With a soothing cadence and repetition akin to "Goodnight Moon" this book makes a wonderful bedtime story. Accompanied by humorous illustrations, the wonders of the fair, along with Benjamin's wayward balloon, come to life. Two impetuous visitors hiding on each page incorporate a "Where's Waldo?" element to this darling tale for added fun.
