I loved this book for two reasons. This main idea of this story was on how it isn’t beauty that makes something to be good and true; in fact, it’s the love and care that go into making it that makes something good and truly beautiful. First, I loved the illustrations in the book. I loved how the illustrator used colors that relate to Korean culture and traditions. For example, the hanbok that the grandfather is wearing throughout the story is in faded traditional colors. Also, the traditional Korean kite that the protagonist was making with his grandfather had blue, red, yellow, and white which are colors that are related to Korean traditions. I also loved the different perspectives that the illustrator drew in. For instance in the scene where the grandson was watching the kite flying in the air with his grandfather, the illustrator drew that scene from the bottom-up perspective. Therefore when looking at the illustration, it felt like I was watching the kite fly with them. Secondly, I liked how the author and the illustrator decided to format the pages of the book. For example, there are some pages where it only has illustrations, and some that don’t have any illustrations at all. In addition, there are times when there are pages with just the illustrations in a row. I really liked how the author and the illustrator formatted this way because there are certain scenes from the story where pictures say more than words. For instance, there is a scene where the grandson takes his kite outside and watches the kite fly in the air with his friend. The illustration portrays an image of children watching in awe of how the kite is flying in the best wind. In this case, no words could amount to the emotions and feelings that the illustration is portraying. This definitely exemplifies how there are times when pictures say more than words, and I loved that the author did this.… (mais)

Good tale (get it? kite - tale. he-he) about a grandson getting to appreciate his grandfather. Sometimes older people do know a thing or two.
