Moon Plane

(4) K-3 When a boy sees an airplane overhead he imagines what it would be like to fly to the moon. Soft pencil drawings (à la Chris Van Allsburg) with a light blush of color set on thick, creamy paper gracefully bring the boy's fantasy to life. The ending, however, seems abrupt, as he returns home and goes directly to bed.
