by Sibylle Von Olfers (Author)
A classic nature tale with art nouveau illustrations, now in a mini edition.
George is playing with his boats, but there's no wind to make them sail. Then one of the wind children comes and blows especially for him - and together they embark on a great adventure.
The wind child blows dandelions in the meadows, shakes apples from the tree and blows the leaves around and eventually she blows George home on a cloud.
From the author of The Story of the Root Children and The Story of the Snow Children, this is another classic children's story with beautiful art-nouveau illustrations that cultivate a feeling of magic and nostalgia.
