I Can Touch the Sky — Karen Wiesner

Our four-year-old hero loves to be outside, swinging as high as he can on his swing. Since he was a baby, he's loved to swing and imagine that he can touch the sky if he swings high enough. Though he's swinging and waving to Mom from the backyard, in his rich imagination, he's swinging from the stars way up in the sky, riding an eagle, having Mr. Moon read him stories while he dozes on the clouds, and eating "sugar" star cookies. When it starts to rain and he has to go inside, our intrepid hero doesn't tell Mom that he made it rain by kicking a dark cloud while he swung so high.
