In the Wind
Simple and evocative language and charming illustrations describe a girl's experience on a windy day. In this gently rhyming board book, a young girl makes, flies, and loses her kite on a windy day. But when she returns home, something special is waiting for her. Elizabeth Spurr and Manelle Oliphant together create a perfect sit-in-your-lap reading experience for toddlers.

Praise for this book
"A gentle outing for children who are ready for stories of everyday life rather than just objects to name."--Kirkus Reviews "The soft, painterly illustrations transport readers to that blustery day in the park, right up to the beautiful sunset, and able communicate that girl's emotional experience."--The Horn Book Guide
