The Sun and the Wind

Synopsis of The Sun and the Wind

«The Sun and the Wind» is Aesop's fable adapted by Mairi Mackinnon, published by Usborne in hardcover (48 pages, in English).

In this fable, the sun and the wind argue about who is stronger. To settle it, they test their strength on a traveler: the wind blows furiously to remove his coat, but it is the sun's warmth that makes the man take it off. A story about gentleness versus force.
