Good Night, Wind

When the exhausted winter wind throws a snowy tantrum, it finds comfort in the friendship of two young children in this lyrical retelling of a Yiddish folktale:

Winter Wind worked hard all season long
blowing away leaves,
preparing trees for coats of snow and ice.

Now, Wind is tired and needs a place to rest. But no one wants to shelter so cold and blustery a Wind–not the townspeople, not the country innkeeper, not even the gnarled tree who is worried about frozen roots.
The gentle language of this seasonal story is coupled with intricate cut-paper collage dioramas that are striking for their vibrancy, palette, and movement.A perfect read for a cold, blustery day, or at bedtime with your own sleepy loved ones.
