Description

The sky sends Bear a weightless gift – red as a berry, round like the moon, on a long silver string. When the gift of a balloon floats into Bear's life, the two companions embark on a journey of discovery as small as a clearing in the forest . . . and as deep as the sky. With emotive, lyrical text and radiant illustrations, Matthew Burgess and Catia Chien tell a compassionate tale of friendship and forgiveness that honours the small but profound world of the very young.

Catia Chien was born and raised in Sao Paulo, Brazil, surrounded by wild animals and tropical fruits. She graduated from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, with honours. Today, she is happily working as a children's book artist from her art studio in New York, with a view of the East River and an old pencil factory.
