Free Fall (Caldecott Honor Book)

by David Wiesner, David Wiesner (Illustrator)

Overview

When he falls asleep with a book in his arms, a young boy dreams an amazing dream—about dragons, about castles, and about an unchartered, faraway land. And you can come along...

This wordless Caldecott Honor Book is a classic, beautiful picture book by a master of the form, David Wiesner, who has been awarded the Caldecott Medal three times and the Caldecott Honor twice.

Free Fall is imagination-sparking and a pleasure to share with young children, who will recognize and be inspired by the power of dreams.
