From bestselling creators Guojing and Gideon Sterer comes a richly imagined ode to the wonder of the wind—from a welcome breeze to its whines and whistles—in soothing, alliterative verse.
On a seaside farm, a young girl watches and waits for the wind to bring her what she’s been longing for the most.
With show-stopping art and language that sings, What Is the Wind? honors the mystery of the natural world and the invisible forces that carry us back to where we belong.
Gideon Sterer is a New York Times bestselling author who grew up in the woods of upstate New York. Not too far away, his parents owned a wildlife discovery center where he would run around after hours and let the animals out. His books include If You Make a Call on a Banana Phone, The Midnight Fair, I Will Read to You, and Treehouse Town.
GuoJing is an author of picture books and graphic novels. She is renowned for her award-winning wordless picture book titled The Only Child, which has received several international awards. The book was included in the year-end best books lists of New York Times, Publishers Weekly, The Wall Street Journal and USA Today in 2015. In addition to The Only Child, she has published other books, such as Stormy in 2019, and a graphic novel called The Flamingo in 2022, the graphic novel "Oasis" in 2025.
