Book Synopsis
James loves collecting kites, which he keeps pristine and safe in his bedroom cupboard. His little sister, GG, loves opening cupboard doors and pulling things out ...
Whenever James has earned enough money from doing small jobs for his neighbors, he buys himself a new kite. He hangs it in his closet with his other kites, where they remain just as James likes them: safe, tidy, just right. That is, until his little sister discovers them. GG has different ideas about kites, and about keeping things safe and tidy. James' sure he knows what's best, but he also loves GG. Is it time for him to reconsider what it means to be "just right"?
This delightful book featuring a special sibling bond offers a wonderful lesson about the joy that can be found in being open to new experiences. It's perfect for anyone needing a fresh perspective on what's "right," and for any child adjusting to life with a younger sibling.
