The Balloon Tree

This book is rated five stars. It is about a little girl who was a princess. Her father had to leave town. He said if there's any trouble then send lots of balloons to the sky.He got the old duke to come and babysit. This duke was very mean. He wanted to be king. The princess loved balloons. The hole castle was full of them. This old duke sent the princess to her room and popped all her balloons. She went in a secret chamber behind her bed. She went to talk to the wizard. The wizard told her to find at least one balloon. Then say this poem. So the princess went outside to find a balloon. By the time it was night she gave up. A little boy came over and gave her a balloon. The princess said thank you. She went to the castles garden burried the balloon and said the poem. A tree appeared. Blossoms bloomed on every Branch. The princess touched one blossom and balloons came shooting out. The town was full of balloons! The king saw the balloons and rushed to the castle. The king put the duke in the dungeon and they had a party. I love this book!
