The Little Blue Kite by Mark Z. Danielewski

We all have fears, but if we can't face the small ones how will we face the big ones? Kai is afraid to fly a little blue kite. But Kai is also very, very brave, and overcoming this small fear will lead him on a great adventure.

Remember: all great adventures start with one little moment. You know the one. It's like a gentle breeze whispering in your ear what you already know by heart:

not even the sky is the limit . . .

The only other thing you might want to know about this book is that there are at least three ways to read it.

The first way takes only a few minutes. Just follow the rainbow-colored words.

The second takes only a little bit longer. Just follow the words haloed with blue and red and the rainbow words too.

For the third way, just start at the beginning.

About the Author: MARK Z. DANIELEWSKI is the author of some pretty complicated books. The Little Blue Kite, though, is pretty simple. And, sure, maybe there is more here than just big beautiful skies, but who are we to start babbling about the virtues of letting go, especially in a bio, which is really where we should just say the author lives in California with his wife, daughter, and two cats, Archimedes and Meifumado, all of whom know that the wonderful thing about flying a kite is that in the end you don't even need a kite.
