Description

Homan Walsh likes to fly his kite. And when a contest is announced to look whose kite string can span Niagara Falls, Homan is ready on winning, in spite of the cold and the wind—and even if his kite is lost and broken. Homan’s determination is beautifully captured on this soaring, poetic picture book that includes Terry Widener’s stunning acrylic paintings. Both writer and illustrator worked with experts on either side of the falls to as it should be present Homan Walsh’s story. The book also includes an extensive writer’s note, timeline, bibliography, and further resources.
