Abstract: The complex manifold CP^n x CP^{n+1} with symplectic form sigma_mu=sigma_{CP^n}+musigma_{CP^{n+1}}, where sigma_{CP^n} and sigma_{CP^{n+1}} are normalized Fubini-Study forms, n a natural number and mu>1 a real number, contains a natural Lagrangian sphere L^{mu}. We prove that the Dehn twist along L^{mu} is symplectically isotopic to the identity for all mu>1. This isotopy can be chosen so that it pointwise fixes a complex hypersurface in CP^n x CP^{n+1} and lifts to the blow-up of CP^n x CP^{n+1} along a complex n-dimensional submanifold.
