Jenna writes the following about Twenty-One Balloons :

The Twenty-One Balloons The Twenty-One Balloons is written by: William Pene Du Bois. This book is a very good book. A balloonist, Professor Waterman Sherman, sets off in his balloon hoping for a year of peace of quite. When his balloon crashes, his dreams slowly float away. Professor Sherman finally gets rescued by a native on the most dangerous island in the world, Krakatoa. (This was so because of volcanoes.) This book is about what may happen if you are blown a little off course in a hot air balloon. I rated this book a 9 out of 10. This is a very good book that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Hopefully you will think that this book is a very good book also
