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.
