Little Wings #3: Star-Bubble Trouble

Part of Little Wings

Illustrated by Kristi Valiant
Cecilia Galante's sweet series about a lovable curly-haired cupid soars on in book #3.

A cloud trip, Willa Bean's class is going on a cloud trip! It's not just any cloud trip either. They're going to Cloud Nine!

Willa Bean needs to get ready, but things are all crazy-daisy around her house. Her baby brother Louie's favorite toy, a red rubber star-bubble ball, is missing. He's crying. He's wailing. His eyes are all red and puffy.

All Willa Bean has to do is forget Baby Louie for a day. But she can't, no matter how hard she tries. Baby Louie's star-bubble trouble is turning into a big black cloud over her cloud trip!
