The Kite Festival

(3) K-3 While on a Sunday drive, Fernando's family comes across a kite festival. Fernando doesn't have a kite, but he and his family find a creative way to make one--which wins a prize for originality. This sweet family story is accompanied by Torres's simple, effective illustrations. Directions for making a hexagonal kite are included. Concurrently published in Spanish.
