The great Miao master of the Jade Circus, offers twelve-year-old Haoyou the amazing chance to change his life -- to escape from his family's poverty and the pain of his father's recent death -- by becoming a kite rider!

And is the Great Miao all that he seems, or could he be using Haoyou in a treacherous plot?
