Description
Parachute Man tells the story of an unusual and intriguing visitor who reveals a huge, old silk parachute to a group of children. After some initial reluctance and scepticism they are amused, enthused and enthralled by the movements and shapes made by the material as air fills and spills from the parachute. Together they create a story, rich in images and vocabulary, and are transported into an ancient narrative where imagination and reality merge....
As he leaves the children Parachute Man promises a return with the possibility of new and exciting adventures.
