All The MBK eBook Titles At A Glance

The PDF file is a good format for downloading kite books from the Internet. They work on nearly all computers available at retail outlets. PDFs are designed for easy magnification of the print size if desired, for on-screen reading, and easy selection of pages to print out. When you do a print-out, the content is nicely formatted on each page. Unlike just trying to print straight from a website!

By securing a full printout in a simple binder you can make a handy addition to your collection of kite books.

OK, on with the library tour!

For Recreational Reading - My Cheapest eBooks

Just one of these so far. It's all about seeing your kite waft skywards in a bubble of warm air...

Climbing Kites - 10 Selected Thermal Tales.




The FREE eBooks

'Power, Chinese, Box & Stunt Kites' Just the one PDF so far. It's a sizable chunk of information, containing most of the info which launched this website in the first 12 months or so.

Read more about it on the Newsletter sign-up page.




I have a policy of making most of the info on this site available in PDF form, one way or another. Researched content is free, in return for an action on your part, like signing up for the newsletter.

The MBK eBooks containing my own original content come at a small price. Hoever, I believe this source of very detailed kite-making info will be useful for kite-fliers at all levels of experience. The beginner will need the step-by-step approach, while more experienced people will unearth the odd 'good idea' and interesting technique!

Stay tuned for more kite books in the near future...
