Description
This story follows the adventures of Jenny and her brothers Matt and Jon on a summer family trip to the beach. The children spend their days making dribble cakes by the shore, eating delicious pastries at the local bakery and exploring the beach's many treasures. When Jenny sees a red kite in a store, it's love at first sight. But things take an unexpected turn when she flies the kite over the ocean. What will she do to save her red kite? This tale of beaches, kites and family was inspired by true events in the much beloved town of Barnegat Light, N.J. To this day, the authors still recall when they would visit the dunes on the last eve of vacation and draw sticks in the sand, with a promise to return the following year.
