Omschrijving

For over fifty years, Lawrence Yep has taken generations of readers on the adventure of a lifetime in his Newbery Honor-winning classic middle grade novel, Dragonwings.

Moon Shadow only knows two things about his father, Windrider: he lives in San Francisco and used to craft beautiful kites.

One day shortly after his eighth birthday, Cousin Hand Clap arrives with a letter from Windrider asking Moon Shadow to join him in San Francisco. When Moon Rider arrives in America he learns that his father makes a living doing laundry and dreams of building a flying machine just like the Wright brothers. But making this fantastical dream a reality proves to be no easy task, as intolerance, poverty, and even an earthquake stand in their way.

Inspired by the story of a Chinese immigrant who created a flying machine in 1909, the Newbery Honor-winning Dragonwings touches on the struggles and dreams of Chinese immigrants navigating opportunity and prejudice in San Francisco.

This fiftieth anniversary edition includes Laurence Yep's new preface about the creation of the novel and a biography of the real aviator.
