I whoosh over tundra, yodel over Everest, skim westward on whitecaps. I am the wind! Journey with the wind as it travels around the world, encountering different landscapes and interacting with a variety of animals. With lyrical text and atmospheric illustrations, this debut picture book showcases the global importance of the wind to various creatures and environments.
