When Little Donkey and his mother shop for a birthday present for his friend, he selects a red kite. Loose pen-and-ink sketches capture Little Donkey's playfulness and his mother's mild nature, while the text's spare language spells out Little Donkey's dilemma: he wants to keep the kite. This friendly, honest tale of childhood covetousness is wrapped up with enormous affection.
