When Woggy, the stuffed dog, and Cosmos, the wooden airplane, decide it is time to get away from the toy box and to go Somewhere, they figure the only way to go is to fly, and the only way to fly is together. So in a grand adventure, out and up they swoop, Satomi-style: whirling up stairs, and past sleepy apartment windows, and over enchanting rooftops. Until they meet the Cloud Monster....

This ear-flapping, propeller-spinning twosome is, quite simply, adorable. And the surprise at the end of the book will take your breath away. It did theirs!

Charming in its simplicity, this is another Ichikawa book children will love.
