Riassunto

Here is a beautiful, poetic picture book about discovering one of the most beautiful treasures of all -- friendship.

• Daisy sees a yellow kite flying in the sky and is immediately taken with it. It leads her to a young boy, William, who lives on the other side of the hill.
• William shares the kite with Daisy and shows her how to fly it. But before she knows it, Daisy is running away, back to her home -- with William’s kite.
• Daisy’s elation over the kite turns to guilt, a feeling that keeps her awake all night.
• Having the treasured kite doesn’t seem as important anymore. Will Daisy be able to right her wrongs?
• 32 pages.
• Full-color illustrations throughout.
• Hardcover picture book with dust jacket.
• 8-1/2 by 11-1/4 inches high.

As a little boy, illustrator Jonathan Bentley liked soccer and drawing. When he was about eight years old he realized that he might not be good enough to play soccer professionally and so he concentrated on drawing instead. He likes to work with a range of materials including acrylics, oils, and line and watercolor. Jonathan looks forward to the day when he has a big barn-like studio somewhere in the countryside.
