Chapter 1:

The Beginning - A Place of Magic for Everyone

Violet Jenkins sat on the ground picking grass out of her hair--again. The sky was full of kites. But after one hundred tries, she’d fallen on her face at least ten times. All she could get her kite to do was to flitter and flop. Sometimes it didn’t even bother to flitter and just flopped straight to the ground.

A pretty girl with auburn hair and eyes a sparkling shade of blue, Violet was no ordinary ten- year-old. As soon as she caught her breath she’d be back at it again, trying as hard as the first time to get her kite in the air.

She designed it this way so sunbeams would bounce off the kite producing a radiant burst of colors. If only she could get it to fly. There were so many kites, why did hers have to be the only one that wouldn’t fly?

The tall man wearing a uniform and bowtie smiled. He said, Hello, Violet. Today you want an ice cream cone.

Why, yes I do, she replied.

Mr. Snowflake continued, Today you want your ice cream cone to be strawberry and vanilla swirls, dipped in hot fudge.

"That’s exactly what I want. It’s like magic, the way you always know exactly what I want
