Brightly illustrated story of a boy in a wheelchair's celebration of Basant.

Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. ( )

Great story highlighting the Basant Kite Festival! ( )

This book is about a boy in a wheelchair that wins the traditional kite battle in Lahore, Pakistan. People go on their roofs and try to keep their kites flying. The last one up wins. They have to try and take down the surrounding kites to be the last one in the sky. I like that this book shows diversity and it also tells of some Pakistan traditions. The book shows that children with disabilities can do things like or even better than anyone else. I also enjoyed the friendship between siblings. ( )
