%u201cHow will I fly again without a tail?%u201d wept the kite sadly. The wind whipped it up into the air. It didn%u2019t fly up, but went round and round. The kite didn%u2019t like this at all. It wished again that Tinku would take it back.The kite felt that it was safer to be tied to a string. The wind became quiet and the kite went down once more to the ground. This time, it dropped into a field where there was a donkey looking for something to eat. On seeing the kite, the donkey began to nibble round the edges of the kite.Just then, a little boy saw the kite. He came running towards it. %u201cOh, my poor kite!%u201d said the boy.The kite looked up to see who it was. It was Tinku.%u201cOh, how happy it is to be back!%u201d the kite thought.Tinku lifted the kite gently and went home. He mended the holes in it. Then he made a tail for it. He took the kite up to the hill to fly it.Tinku had only some string . The kite couldn%u2019t fly very high. But it didn%u2019t mind it at all. %u201c It is safer to be held on a string,%u201d the kite thought. It tugged just a little when the wind blew hard. Tinku flew the kite for a long time.
