The Weather's Bet*"Awe inspiring artwork as powerful as any force of nature." Kirkus Reviews (starred review) From Caldecott Medalist Ed Young comes a picture book retelling of Aesop's fable The Wind and the Sun. Once upon the sky, there were three powers the Wind, the Rain, and the Sun each claiming to be the mightier than the others. One day, the powers came upon a shepherd girl fast asleep upon a hill, so they made a bet to see who could make her take her cap off.
*"Awe-inspiring artwork as powerful as any force of nature."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)From Caldecott Medalist Ed Young comes a picture book retelling of Aesop's fable The Wind and the Sun. Once upon the sky, there were three powers--the Wind, the Rain, and the Sun--each claiming to be the mightier than the others. One day, the powers came upon a shepherd girl fast asleep upon a hill, so they made a bet to see who could make her take her cap off. Who will be the strongest of them all? Rendered in exquisite mixed-media collage, Caldecott Medalist Ed Young's gorgeous and deeply poignant retelling of the well-known Aesop's fable The Wind and the Sun, proves that sometimes gentle persuasion and kindness are the best virtues of all. Praise for The Weather's Bet "Lyrical and profound." --School Library Journal "A good classroom readaloud."--Publishers Weekly

Elegant & well made
Color: Black
Elegant and well made. I was worried that the jewels would fall off, but so far, so good! The strap is sturdy & fits all the essentials. When full, it is a little tricky to snap shut, but a litle adjustment to the angle of my phone and I was just fine.
