A drawing of the sun with a face drawn on it.

THE NORTH WIND AND THE SUN written and illustrated by Philip Stead

.Philip Stead enhances Aesop in a way that may speak more strongly to adults than children in THE NORTH WIND AND THE SUN. Stead’s imagery, both in pictures and words, adds layers to the simple tale so that we see the immense power of cruel bullying and the ultimate triumph that comes from standing strong against what appears unconquerable and persevering in pursuing a kinder caring course.
