High on the wardrobe in warm, golden light, Riya the red kite dreams of flight. Her ribbon tail shimmers as Max carries her to the park — but today's wild, rushing breezes are too strong, flipping her in a bumpy ride until Max gently reels her home. On a calmer day, under a soft blue sky, a just-right breeze lifts her smoothly past the treetops, safe and brave and happy. Told in gentle rhyme, this is a story about sensory sensitivity, knowing your limits, and finding the conditions where you truly soar. Ages 4–9.

What Parents Say
Families sharing their experiences with our books and family safety tools.
After reading this, my daughter started asking about how lighthouses work and we ended up looking up videos together. Anything that gets her that curious is a win in my book.
The rhythm of this book is so soothing. It's become our Sunday-morning read. The river metaphor opened up a real conversation about listening to nature with my kids.
A beautiful, quiet story. On high-energy days my 6-year-old can't sit through it, but on calm evenings it's perfect. The language is genuinely lovely.
