520			_aYoung Martine and her brother Jean (or cousin Yann in the French original) are thrilled when their Uncle Harry, a hot‑air balloon pilot, invites them to join his Sunday balloon race. They eagerly climb aboard, and the balloon ascends over charming countryside scenes—windmills, forests, farms—as they float gracefully higher and higher. As they drift through the sky, Martine’s wonder grows. The siblings marvel at the changing landscapes and feel the thrill of the gentle breeze. The illustrations by Marcel Marlier beautifully capture their excitement and the serene aerial views. Ultimately, Uncle Harry pilots them safely to a landing on a sandy beach. The balloon touches down successfully, and their family celebrates: Uncle Harry wins the race, and Martine and Jean beam with pride and joy at their adventurous outing.
