"This is the story of young boy who manages to overcome financial hardships with the power of his imagination. Eddie Wing dreams of flying beautiful silk kites like all the other kids, but his family is so poor that he can't even afford to buy a kite made of paper. This year, Old Chan has said that the person who builds the smallest kite will win the kite-flying competition. A girl wins the prize, but the old man has noticed Eddie flying his imaginary kite. Impressed by the young boy's imagination, Chan gives him the materials to build his own kite. Eddie's spirit inspires Chan to write a beautiful poem about a boy who flies a kite of dreams"
