Bookroo's summary

On vacation at Mt. Rushmore, George and his friend miss a helicopter tour, but a hot air balloon race offers an unexpected thrill. Swept into the sky, George finds himself face-to-face with the iconic presidents. Will his curiosity lead to more mischief, or will he safely return to the ground? Join George on this high-flying adventure where surprises await at every turn.

From the publisher

While on vacation, George and the man with the yellow hat stop to see Mt. Rushmore. There’s no time to take a helicopter ride for a close-up view - the hot air balloon races are about to start! Whisked up and away at the races, a surprised George gets a close-up view of the presidents after all.
