(2) K-3 Illustrated by Maëlle Doliveux. Near the end of wintertime, the wind--personified in striking illustrations as a large blue body affixed with different-colored and -textured strips of paper--unsuccessfully seeks a place to rest. Increasingly frustrated, Wind unleashes a blizzard that frightens a girl's brother. She stands up to Wind before finding it an out-of-the-way resting spot. Readers should appreciate the youngsters' cleverness, problem-solving abilities, and empathy in this story inspired by a Yiddish-language tale.
