In this touching story based on true 1920Us events, two rival groups of children representing two different cultures come face to face, and when they do, they find they share much more than just the same sky. Full color. |
Reviews"Hall's story, based [on] an incident in his father's life, subtly teaches that bigotry and hatred is often based in ignorance. Low fills his pages with vibrant, glowing color for the kites and expressive faces that allow the reader to feel the passion, fear, and finally acceptance of the characters. An excellent resource for teaching diversity--and a little urban history as well.--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
