Review
I've not thought so much or so often of a children's book as I have since reading The Boy, The Kite, and the Wind. While the moral of the story is true and grounded, there is also an underwritten subtext that believably claims life is somberly beautiful. I am grateful to have remembered the wind in my own life, and know now that the sacrifice of a thousand kites is worth the memories. --Donald Miller, author and speaker
This is by far the most beautiful and moving book for children I have ever read. The elegantly simple, yet touching story and the magnificent illustrations will fill your child s soul with wonder and make their hearts soar. Parents be warned! You will have to explain to your son or daughter why you cry every time you read it to them. --Ian Morgan Cron, author, Chasing Francis: A Pilgrim's Tale
Al Andrews lifts our spirits just like the red kite he writes about in this simple, timeless story even as he reveals the loss of innocence. The Boy, The Kite, and the Wind has a deeply provocative message that we can share with every child and throughout each season of our life. With its beautiful and moving illustrations you may discover your deepest longings, dashed dreams and hope upon hope. You will reconsider the joys of living a life that's a little bit dangerous but full of possibilities. It is worth reading again and again. --Chris Hilicki, Psychotherapist and Founder of Dalmatian Press, a national children's book publisher

About the Author
Al Andrews lives in Franklin, Tennessee with his wife Nita and their sons Hunter and Brent. He grew up in Montreat, North Carolina and attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
He is the director of Porter's Call, a non-profit that comes alongside recording artists with counsel, support and encouragement.
When his boys were young, Al took them on many kite flying expeditions which were always great fun. However, they never came home with their kites, which instead ended up in trees, crumpled on the ground, or somewhere in the airspace over Guatemala. Ever hopeful, he plans to fly them one day with his grandchildren.
This is his first children's book.
...
Jonathan Bouw lives in Muncie, Indiana with his wife and three children. Prior to his current home, he lived in the Republic of the Philippines, Malaysia, New York, and the state of Idaho. He studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.
Jonathan is a professional illustrator and is currently the Chair of the Art Department at Taylor University, in Upland, Indiana.
When he was a boy, he made and flew kites made of plastic bags and coconut tree fronds. Besides making kites, he loved to draw dinosaurs, make airplanes, create rubber band weapons, shoot bamboo canons, and climb mango trees, all of which he still enjoys, though not as frequently.

The Joy of Rebuffing "Insanity"
By Ted Hill
Al Andrews is Insane! So Is Jesus!
So is anyone who goes and buys another kite knowing that it will get swallowed up or lost or shredded again and again and again!
Jesus is also in the know about something beyond insanity - it is called hope!
Al's story invites us into the vibrant, colorful and flavor-filled impartation of hope. "Because the memory of wind is stronger than the memory of the kite." Doing something over and over again expecting the same result is only insane if your world is driven by results! The journey is rich with story and experience and memory - this is what the grace of God enters: our story!!! And most especially when we are lying face down in the colorful leaves of fall feeling tormented by that unreachable kite "in caught in branches of the greedy old tree!!!
This book is a gift of grace and an invitation to live with the full-bodied taste of grace and the astounding smell of the winds of hope! Its pages are filled with beauty and joy ... I so love this book ... in fact I miss it - I had 5 now I have 0 ... time to put in my order right after this review!
Go Al Go!
Go Jesus Go!
Oh yeah ... don't forget to check out Al's story behind the story: improbablephilanthropyDOTcom On Al's site is a great video of the story being read by youth from Uganda who have known the torment of loss and now are soaring with hope and awe at Restore Academy ... just so amazing of a story!!!!
I am blessed!

Wonderfully Written - Beautifully Illustrated
By Andy Allen
I love this book!
There is a profound message deep within the pages of this book. It's rare to find a story that reaches out to both children and parents while reading this together and that's what keeps this book on a regular rotation in our home.
Thoughtful, not trite. Paced and peaceful. A story that finds it's way into your soul because the message is rooted in the heart of that love between parent and child.
The art and the imagery are moving and make this a must have for your children's book collection.

Delightful story, beautifully illustrated
By Doug Add
Each time I read this book I am reminded of the power of story to move us. Al's imagination creates a delightful tale of loss and love, and Jonathan's beautiful illustrations vividly bring it to life visually. The story behind the story is even more amazing. Who starts a business just to give away all the net proceeds? Only someone whose heart has been captured by a greater love.
