More from Linda Sue Park's delightful celebration of brotherhood, set in Fifteenth-century Korea.

We've met the two brothers.  We've learned of the great skill of one at the engineering and decoration of beautiful, strong kites.  We've learned by test of the great skill of the other at flying kites, sometimes under profound restrictions.  Come and enjoy as Gina shares more of this touching and suspenseful story that mixes a vivid setting with the journey of the brothers as they grow in skill, gain praise, and challenge family traditions.
