Book Synopsis

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.

Review Quotes

★ "Cathartic, reflective, and ultimately joyful, this is, like the wind itself, 'a wonder.'" - The Horn Book (starred review)

"All the terror and delight of a simple breeze, wrapped up for the youngest to respect and enjoy." - Kirkus Reviews

"Together, words and imagery dovetail to create a memorable and nearly tangible demonstration of the power and majesty of the wind. Beautifully crafted." - School Library Journal
