Wind Watchers

De: Micha Archer

Narrado por: Ana Osorio

Caldecott Honor winner Micha Archer’s spectacular new book showcases the wind’s ever-changing, blustery nature throughout the seasons.

Seasons come and go, and the wind wafts its way through them all. This delights a family of children, and when they ask the wind, “How will you blow today?” they get a kick out of not knowing what answer they’ll get. Will the wind send gentle breezes that tickle and delight, cooling them off on hot days? Or strong gusts that knock their hats off and send them running inside on stormy days? One thing is for certain to our wind watchers—the wind is an always-changing wonder and constantly takes their breath away!

Reseñas de la Crítica

* “Follow a trio of children through the seasons as they ask the Wind, ‘How will you blow today?’ ... The narration is conversational, even breezy at times. Short, frequent pops of alliteration and compelling turns of phrase feel wonderfully lyrical, such as a young skater thanking the wintry Wind ‘for the extra-looooong glide.’”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“In lilting words and elegant collage spreads by Caldecott Honoree Archer, three children are shown encountering the varied powers of wind across the seasons.”—Publishers Weekly

“Lyrically covers the experience of wind. . . . Season by season, [Archer] takes readers on a journey through encounters with the wind: flying a kite, watching ripples in a pond, chasing dandelion seeds, and jumping in fallen leaves. It’s a book that covers how wind is invisible, but its force blows spring petals to the ground. It makes, at times, no sound, but it wrestles with wind chimes in the evening.”—School Library Journal
