The kite in the tree

Read the story first.

Kit and the kiteKit had a brand new yellow kite. A gust of wind blew it into a tall tree, and Kit felt sad and cross. That was okay. Bun came with a big green umbrella and sat close beside him. Rex the pup barked and bounced to help, and Dot brought a long stick. Together they hooked the kite down. Kit noticed that his friends came to help without being asked. "Thank you, Bun! Thank you, Rex! Thank you, Dot!" he said. Dot showed Kit a gratitude jar full of paper slips. Kit wrote, "My friends helped me get my kite," and dropped the slip in the jar. Then he made a card for his grown-up.
