Read: The Windy-Day Kite
On Saturday morning, Maia and her cousin Freya went to the park in Wellington with a bright orange kite. A strong southerly wind tugged at the kite’s tail. Just as it rose above the trees, the string snapped. The kite sailed towards a tall pōhutukawa tree and caught on a low branch. Maia felt worried, but Freya had an idea. They asked a park ranger for help. The ranger used a long fruit-picking pole to lift the kite down safely. Maia and Freya tied on a stronger string and took turns holding the kite. It flew high until lunchtime. They learned that asking for help and working together can solve a tricky problem.
