內容簡介

In "The Kite That Couldn’t Fly: And Other May Avenue Stories," Michael Menard crafts a captivating memoir, weaving a narrative of resilience and hope from the threads of his challenging childhood. Raised amidst poverty and complex trauma, Menard was one of 14 siblings, each uniquely shaped by their shared experiences. His memoir transcends mere storytelling; it’s a journey through the harrowing and the humorous, the unbelievable and the universal, resonating deeply with the human spirit of overcoming adversity.


Menard’s life is a beacon of triumph, demonstrating that out of the darkest circumstances can emerge the brightest futures. His account is not just his own but a voice for those who have faced similar trials. From laugh-out-loud anecdotes to heart-wrenching realities, the book navigates through a spectrum of emotions, offering readers a raw, unfiltered glimpse into a life less ordinary. At its core, this book is a testament to the indomitable human spirit. Menard’s mother, Arletta, emerges as a hero, imparting lessons of love, hope, and resilience. In contrast, his father, Paul, embodies the complexities of a man shaped by his own trauma, offering a nuanced portrayal of parenthood and survival.


"The Kite That Couldn’t Fly" isn’t just a memoir; it’s a mirror for us all, reflecting the universal journey of struggle and success. It challenges readers to confront their pasts, understand their present, and rekindle hope for their futures. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to find light in their darkness, strength in their struggles, and a reminder that even a kite that couldn’t fly can soar to unimaginable heights.



Praise for "The Kite that Couldn’t Fly"


"What a truly superb and beautiful book! Michael Menard is a master storyteller, whose tales brought me from

laughter one moment to tears another. The Kite That Couldn’t Fly is chock full of wisdom, humor, and insights

about why we thrive and why we stumble. It shows how unconditional love, hope, faith, and a strong spine over‐

come the most difficult circumstances. I’m grateful for the pleasure of reading it and know it will be an inspiration

and uplift to all who read it."

- GLENN R. SCHIRALDI, PH.D., LT. COLONEL, AUTHOR, THE ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES RECOVERY WORKBOOK


"An amazing journey from violence and poverty into triumph! The stories are compelling and touching but it’s

more than a story. This book can help heal the wounds we carry from childhood. I couldn’t put it down."

- DAVE FARROW, INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR


"Menard has written a midwestern version of Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes and even the malignant nuns

make a cameo. It’s the storytelling and the unique structure of the book that makes The Kite That Couldn’t Fly so compelling."

- JAMES MURRAY, PHD
