The book tells the tale of a small mouse named Ezequiel Tinklepaw and his friend the kite. They have many adventures together and become close friends, but sometimes being a kite isn't all it's cracked up to be. The kite finds he doesn't so much like being pulled everywhere that Ezequiel wants to go, so he decides to venture out on his own. The results of his decision make for a heartwarming tale of friendship complete with life lessons and cautionary tales. Although the story is childlike, the ideas are thoughtful and the art is an intricate, complex work of it's own. Excerpt: "Ezequiel Tinklepaw was a small young mouse who lived with his mother and father in a hole at the base of an ancient oak tree. The home had been in the family for several generations and though the interior was dated, the location was desirable and the Tinklepaw family had always been very happy living there. . ."
