Heads Up!: A Resilience Story

By Shoshana Stopek and Gal Weizman

Peanut has invited all of his friends to the meadow for a special day. This little chipmunk is finally big enough to fly a kite by himself. Ready, set, plop! Up, up—and right back down. What is Peanut doing wrong? With the help of his friends, a lot of patience, unrelenting resilience, complete belief in himself, and of course, a gust of wind, Peanut’s hard work pays off and takes his kite—and confidence—to new heights!
