''A Tale of Five Balloons'' (Hebrew: מעשה בחמישה בלונים, ''Ma'aseh Be-Hamisha Balonim'') is an Israeli children's book by Miriam Roth published in 1974 and illustrated by Ora Ayal. The book received huge popularity and became a classic in Israeli children's literature. == Plot == The book is about five children each of whom get a balloon from Ruti's mother - a blue balloon for Ruti, yellow for Ron, purple for Sigalit, green for Uri and red for Alon. During the book, all the children's balloons burst, with the exception of Alon's, which the wind blew out of the children's reach. The children look at the balloon and shout "Bye, bye, red balloon!". Whenever one of the balloons bursts, the children are comforted and told "that's the end of every balloon". Each balloon had burst for the following different reasons: * Uri's balloon burst due to contact with a rose plant while Uri was playing with a ball. * Ron's balloon burst after his father over-inflated it since Ron wanted it to be "a big as the sun". * Sigalit's balloon burst due to her cat, Mitzi, having played with it, and scratching it with her claws. * Ruti's balloon burst since she crushed it out of will to protect it after most of the balloons had burst. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Tale of Five Balloons」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
