The Wind: Friend or Foe? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780228879121)

The wind can be frightening at times, especially for children. This fear can lead to greater challenges in life if not addressed early. Focusing on how the wind might help a child to be brave and have fun while playing outside during all four seasons can be beneficial. Len is invited to swing with his grandma and discuss the many ways the wind has helped him play outside and the important role that it plays in our environment. Len overcomes his fear of the wind by not only knowing that he has a safe place inside the house when the wind sometimes creates a storm, but also by reminiscing about several ways that the wind has helped him to develop his imagination and have safe fun playing outside.
