My child loved this one

The Boy with the Helium Head is a whimsical, imaginative story about a boy named Jonathan who has a bad day. From a breakfast of Cream of Wheat to problems with the school bully to a fussy baby brother, the day takes a turn for the bizzare when Jonathan is accidentally injected with helium by a frazzled doctor. Jonathan's aerial adventures capture the interest of a child, and everyone is surprised by the resolution of the conflict between Jonathan and the bully.
