“What’s all this pushing and rushing?” demanded Lulu’s father. “It’s the last day of the vacation! Shouldn’t we make the most of it and have a little peace?” “It’s because it’s the last day!” said Mellie. “What do you want peace for, anyway?” asked Lulu. “I still haven’t flown my kite!” said Mellie. Lulu’s parents looked at each other. Then out the window. “Mellie...” began Lulu’s mother, but Mellie would not listen. Over the sand dunes she raced the family and onto the wide sunny beach. Not a breath of wind was blowing. Not a breath of wind blew all that day. They tried the beach and they tried the park and they tried the high place on the cliffs where the fort stood. They discovered that no amount of running and tossing and adjusting and untangling will make a kite fly without any wind. It was the last day of the vacation, and no kite flew. No dog from the sea saw it and came running. And nothing, not paddling, nor fair rides, nor even takeout food from the Golden Lotus could make Lulu and Mellie happy.
