A hypnotic story about what happens when I child's imagination greets the wind as it whistles past the house at night. "I Hear the Wind" features Greg Budig's musical prose and provocative illustrations, which invite the reader to see the invisible wind by listening to the sounds the wind makes. In every image, Budig at once conveys the winds menace and charm. He does not patronize his young audience, imagining them as peceptive adults-in-the-making even as the magic between his words and the winds artistry imagine his older audience as children at heart. "I Hear the Wind" is one of those special places where parents and children meet as they follow the swirling leaves from page to page.
In this age of interactive books, Greg Budig's instant classic reminds us that all fine children's books engage us as willing participants. The story of the wind urges the reader to go beyond the train tracks and the tops of the trees. It finds the wind in the tilt of a feather and the powerful wave's curl.
