From the rear cover
The Kite is W.O. Mitchell's hilarious and often poignant tale of a clever old man and the journalist he leads on a wild goose chase. Seasoned reporter David Lang arrives in Shelby, Alberta, to write a magazine feature on the town's oldest citizen, the 111-year-old curmudgeon Daddy Sherry.
David wants only to file his story and hightail it back to Toronto. But he hasn't reckoned on the cantankerous cunning of Daddy Sherry. As David attempts to figure out what makes Daddy tick, he begins to understand the true meaning of life and, for the first time, finds love and happiness.
