THE DRAGON KITE

Long ago in a village in China, a boy called Chang lived with his father. The village sat in a valley near a huge volcano that sometimes roared and spat and shook the ground.

Many of the boys in the village played rough and noisy games. But Chang sat quietly with his father, making kites to sell in the town.

They worked in a tiny room at the back of their house. Chang's father cut and sewed the kites with threads of silk and Chang painted them.

The people in the town loved their kites, but the ones they loved most were the dragons. Some dragon kites were huge and some were fierce. Some had big, bulging eyes and some had long bodies and scaly tails that twisted and twirled and sang in the wind.
