The wind roars. It
roars past our
home.

The wind is
powerful. It tears
my kite from my
hand.

I run after my kite.
The wind blows me
away from the kite!

The wind becomes
a tornado. It
carries my kite
higher and higher.

The tornado
swallows me up! I
see nothing, I
touch nothing.

Where is my kite
now? Perhaps it is
caught in a tree.

Perhaps my kite is
still flying in the
sky.

The wind finally
dies down. I am
still spinning.

When I stop
spinning I look
around. Where did
the wind go?

I cannot see my
kite anywhere. I
cannot hear the
wind anymore.

Perhaps tomorrow
I will find my kite.

Now, I must go
home, before the
wind starts to roar
again.
