"We crowded in front of her loom. In the middle of the carpet, instead of simple read and yellow stripes, there was now a picture. It was of a kite.  A big, white kite, with long plumes tied to the tail.  They seemed to be fluttering in the wind, and there was a thin string that hung from the kite and bits of white that were clouds.  It was beautiful." (pg64)

Why did Ali weave a kite into her carpet design?

  1. I beleive that she added it because she thought that no one payed much attention to her and so then, she would get away with it. I think that she also did it because Fatimas beauiful description of flying a kite. I feel so horrible, Hussain Khan is taking away their childhood but it is ok because in the future, its not going to be allowed....and all the children that today would be working fo0r a man like Hussain Khan would be at home, with their family.... I hope.

  2. i think ali did that beacuse iqbal and fatima told her about it and dreamed to have one or fly one thats why she drew it and also because she dreamed of one and iqbal and fatima told her how they looked and she just wanted to make something of one
