In 'Farmer Boris and the Hot Air Balloon' by top duo Ted van Lieshout and Philip Hopman, Farmer Boris makes his most spectacular journey to date. The beautiful illustrations from all over the world are a colourful party and, as always, a cheerful story to read aloud in rhyme, full of humour and good for hours of reading and viewing pleasure.
There is a very lonely egg on the farm. Farmer Boris takes it inside so that it can hatch safely. And it does! But... that is not a chicken chick, it is a penguin! It is much too hot here for a penguin chick, he has to get home as soon as possible. But how? There are no trains or buses to the South Pole. Fortunately, Farmer Boris always knows what to do and they bring the chick home with the hot air balloon. But first they are amazed by their eyes along the way.
