{"product_id":"the-kite-that-bridged-two-alexis-oneill-9781590789384","title":"The Kite That Bridged Two Nations: Homan Walsh and the First Niagara Suspension Bridge","description":"Homan Walsh loves to fly his kite. And when a contest is announced to see whose kite string can span Niagara Falls, Homan is set on winning, despite the cold and the wind--and even when his kite is lost and broken. Homan's determination is beautifully captured in this soaring, poetic picture book that features Terry Widener's stunning acrylic paintings. Both author and illustrator worked with experts on both sides of the falls to accurately present Homan Walsh's story. The book also includes an extensive author's note, timeline, bibliography, and further resources.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexis O'Neill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1590789385\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781590789384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Calkins Creek Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.70w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.8\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e159931 \/ Kite That Bridged Two Nations\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e California Young Reader Medal - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2013 pg. 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2013 pg. 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2013 pg. 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2014 - Recommended, Satisfactory","brand":"Alexis O'Neill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48459554521343,"sku":"9781590789384","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b22ad746-4ba8-4a59-9537-e8d86c27ab06.jpg?v=1777410418","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-kite-that-bridged-two-alexis-oneill-9781590789384","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
