Riding on a Roundabout
Riding various roundabout figures and machines, a boy indulges n a series of imaginary adventures; he becomes a racing driver, a helicopter pilot and an Indian prince for example. With its sequence of double pages showing reality opposite fantasy, somewhat reminiscent of John Burningham's Shirley books, but not in the same class.
