Elijah can't wait to take his brand-new kite for its first flight! But with a new baby in the family, Daddy has to work this weekend. Elijah finds a clever way to help out and pitch in with his family while also reminding his dad how to still have a little fun.

Beloved children's book author, Varian Johnson's debut picture book audio highlights the fun journey of a young child building his confidence as he steps up into the big kid role, specifically as the little big man of the house.

Critic reviews

"Bright digital illustrations, paired with exuberant, onomatopoeia-filled text, depict a loving and tight-knit Black family...Big responsibilities and small gestures paint a thoughtful picture of masculinity."—Kirkus
