The Patchwork Bike
Maxine Beneba Clarke
In a village at the edge of a desert, a girl and her brothers make their own entertainment by building a bicycle from everyday and found objects. The homemade bike has branches for handlebars, tin-can handles, wooden wheels, and a bell that was once their mother's milk pot. The siblings ride it over sandy hills and repair it with further ingenuity, taking delight in the bike they created together.
