Description
From bestselling creators Guojing and Gideon Sterer comes a richly imagined ode to the wonder of the wind-from a welcome breeze to its whines and whistles-in soothing, alliterative verse.
On a seaside farm, a young girl watches and waits for the wind to bring her what she's been longing for the most.
With show-stopping art and language that sings, What Is the Wind? honors the mystery of the natural world and the invisible forces that carry us back to where we belong.
