Question and Answer about Henry and the Dragon Kite

Q: The kids learnd alot about making kites from Grandfather Chin. What other things did they learn from him?
A: I think that the kids learned about being responsible and keeping control of your anger.
Q: After they finished making the Dragon Kite Grandfather Chin said that nobody would dare throw rocks at the kite because " Everyone respects Dragons". He was wrong and the boys still threw rocks. Why?
A: I think the answer is that they were trying to protect their pigeons.
Q: At the park, Tony cries when he thinks that his pigeon is going to get hurt by the kite. Why did the Author have Tony cry instead of getting verry angry?
A: I think that the Author had Tony cry was because he wanted to show that Tony wasn't a bully but he respected and cared for his pigeon. And he just reacted to the Kite by throwing rocks at it.

I like your last answer. I think the ending of the story can really touch people's heart, but I just couldn't find the proper descruption of the reason which made the story so warm. But I can see the brilliance of the arrangement right now. I agree with you that sometimes we get too worried or only thinking about ouselves without asking others for solution. But we never meant to do it. The tears if Tony really reminded me something important about respecting others while fighting for myself.
