Customer Reviews

delightful for all ages

My 2 year old even loves this book. The photographs are beautiful and drawings cute. The story is sweet. And with instructions on how to make a kite, there's little to not like about this book. I'm normally against judging a book by its cover but if you are charmed by the cover of this book you'll be charmed by the book.
