Bajette's Balloon: The Magic of Smiles was a pleasure to read. From start to finish, Claudia C Colonna grabs the attention of the young reader by luring them in with a curious balloon that changes color. This had me intrigued and eager to read more. This book is a lot of fun to read, but it also has educational purposes. Children will learn the gift of kindness, allowing them to see the benefits of helping people and just being a decent person in general. The writing has been kept simple so that children can follow along easily. The illustrations are colorful, vibrant, and attractive, and will have children loving them as soon as they lay their eyes on them. I wish Claudia all the best in this creative venture, and I hope to read more from her soon. Keep up the good work!
