hands after a kite-fight. You see, in the winter season, the students in Afghanistan would have recess, sort of like our summer break. During this break, every boy would either make or buy kites.

The boys would fly their kites and use their glass strings to At first i didnt unterstand the meaning of the title, but after reading this i finally understood how they got the title The Kite Runner.
