"Dominated by rich blues and greens, and fully exploiting its varied perspectives, this book treats its readers to the pleasures of airborne adventure. It may not be immortal, but kids will love its lighthearted, meticulously imagined, fun-without-a-moral fantasy"--"School Library Journal, " starred review. A Caldecott Medal Book.

David Wiesner's visual story begins with the moon rising over a peaceful marsh when suddenly the frogs on their lily pads levitate straight up and away. The rest of the story is a wonderful airborne adventure in colourful images.
