What's The Big Balloon About

Publisher Summary

Pip and Posy are friends (most of the time!) in the newest title in this series about the dramas of toddler life. Pip is very proud of his big red balloon. But when he lets the balloon go and it pops, he is inconsolable. Luckily, Posy has a very clever idea to cheer up her friend and soon they are having fun again!
