<strong>Kite</strong> season is here.<br />
Big kites, small kites, and<br />
even smaller kites line the sky.
Zoom goes the bamboo kite.<br />
Zee goes the flexi kite.<br />
Everyone is happy.
But Keara is not happy.<br />
This year Keara has no<br />
money to buy a kite.<br />
“I am still<br />
going to fly a kite”<br />
says Keara.<br />
“I will make one.”
FIRST<br />
Keara tries to use a plastic bag.<br />
But it flys away.<br />
“Wait,<br />
come back!”<br />
yells Keara.
THEN<br />
Keara tries to use a tablecloth<br />
But it is too heavy.<br />
“Oh no”,<br />
says Keara.
NEXT<br />
Keara tries a<br />
cardboard box.<br />
“Not again”,<br />
says Keara.
Keara is sad.<br />
She sits under<br />
the cocoa tree.<br />
But then<br />
an idea pops<br />
into Keara’s<br />
head.
She climbs up the cocoa tree.<br />
She picks one leaf,<br />
two leaves,<br />
three leaves.<br />
Then Keara hurries home.
Now she<br />
waits for<br />
wind.<br />
A little breeze comes.<br />
A bigger breeze...<br />
And an even bigger breeze!
And Keara’s kite flies into the sky.
Keara’s heart flies too.<br />
Just like her pretty cocoa rigi kite.
