General fiction (Children's&YA); Social issues (Children's&YA)

Mohesiwa's wishes take shape in the jungle where he lives and plays. Amunet smiles as she thinks about her future. Juana daydreams when she cleans car windshields and, on the other side of the world, Anja and her brother Tovo search amongst mounds of trash, without ever losing sight of their dreams.

The boys and girls in these short stories fly their kites and dream of a better world. Grab on to its string and join them as you fly away with the Kite of Dreams.

Los deseos de Moshesiwa nacen en la selva donde vive y juega. Amunet sonrie al pensar en su futuro. Juana se deja llevar muy lejos mientras limpia los cristales de los coches y, al otro lado del mundo, Anja y su hermano Tovo rebuscan en un basurero sin dejar de sonar.

Las ninas y ninos de estas pequenas historias vuelan su cometa y suenan con un mundo mejor. Atrapa su hilo y viaja tu tambien con la cometa de los suenos.
