Review: A King Seen from the Sky

A King Seen from the Sky A King Seen from the Sky by Bruno Gibert
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Inspired by the first flight of living things in an aircraft--a hot air balloon, this stylized picturebook details the flight from the animals' point of view.

Nostalgic feeling, line-drawn illustrations make this book unique in the world of busy and loud picturebooks. Unfortunately as a French translation some of this stylized sensibilities will not have the wide appeal to American audiences.
