There was one small cat, called Cat Balloon
Who wanted to fly to the moon.
‘Oh no!’ the other cats gave a loud cry,
‘That’s a crazy idea. Cats can’t fly.’
Based on the book by local West Australian author Palo Morgan, Cat Balloon is the story of a tiny cat with a large imagination.
In the land of dreams, Cat Balloon was not content to lie back and drink sweet honey tea, instead he dreamed of flying to the moon! Taking to the sea in a large silver spoon, this is the tale of his dreams coming true.
