TheNorthWindandtheSun


By: Brian Wildsmith • Illustrations: Brian Wildsmith

The ancient fable of the north wind and the sun, who bet which one of them can cause a man to take off his coat, has been attributed to both Aesop and La Fontaine. The fable in which the powerful wind fails but the warm sun succeeds, teaches us about the limitations of power, highlighting the advantages of kindness, gentleness and warmth. Much like any fable, it discusses issues that are relevant to all of us at every age.

Dear Parents,

Unfortunately, these days, our children are surrounded by violence; They see it on the street, in the media, and in commercially popular electronic games, and they may experience it in everyday life and in their close environment. The fight against the rampant violence in our society does not happen only by denouncing it verbally, but rather through a long path of raising a generation who appreciates basic human values, such as: respecting others, seeing the richness in diversity and pluralism, listening to the other and talking with them, and being kind towards man and nature.
