I teach young children and this is one of their favorites. It has been asked for again and again. I think the kids like it so much because it shows minor mishaps being overcome by creative problem solving. The family goes to a kite festival and decide to make a kite, even though they have brought nothing to make one with. They try out different things to use and eventually succeed.
