Summary:
One snowy day, Russell and his mum make a plan. Together, they will build a kite, just as Mum did with her dad when she was Russell's age. And on the first warm day of spring they'll fly it. The warm day comes and goes, but the kite doesn't get made because Russell's mum gets sick. She spends a lot of time in bed, and Russell has to get his own supper. She forgets to help Russell with his homework, and he fails a test. Then Mum gets mad and throws her phone across the room. Russell gets mad, too. He's sick of Mum being sick! This is a story of how a boy and his mother find help for their struggle with her illness and build a better life together, just as they planned.
