Dragon Wings

By: Laurence Yep

    The story is about a Chinese boy who comes to America to live with his father.  The boy had never seen his father, a man with a fabulous dream.  His father wanted to fly, and he was a kite maker for a living.  This story was inspired by a Chinese immigrant who made a flying machine in 1909; this Historical novel beautifully portrays the rich traditions of the Chinese community.
