just in case you want to fly 

here’s some wind 

and here’s the sky …

 

What else do you need if you want to fly? 

 

a blanket 

a dream 

some kisses on your head 

 

and maybe some gentle reassurance, that no matter where you fly, someone will always be waiting for you. 

 

Award-winning author Julie Fogliano's new book is an invitation to spread your wings … and fly.
