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 powersthe Wind, the Rain, and the Suneach 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?
