The North Wind and the Sun

Name: The North Wind and the Sun
Author: Aesop's Fables — retold by the Hoot Tales team

One bright, clear day, the North Wind and the Sun argued loudly over who was stronger. Looking down, they spotted a traveler in a red cloak walking along the road.

The Sun challenging the North Wind to a contest over who can make the traveler remove his cloak, the North Wind laughing confidently

"Whoever can make that traveler take off his cloak first is the stronger one!" the Sun challenged. The North Wind laughed and eagerly volunteered to go first.

The North Wind blowing fiercely, bending trees, while the traveler clutches his red cloak tightly against the cold

The North Wind blew as hard as it could, bending the trees sideways. But the harder it blew, the tighter the traveler clutched his cloak and shivered. Eventually the North Wind ran out of breath, having accomplished nothing at all.

The Sun gently shining warm rays down as the traveler begins to feel comfortable while walking along the road

Now it was the Sun's turn. It gently shone its warm rays down, and little by little the traveler began to feel comfortable, until the air grew pleasantly warm.

The traveler smiling and happily taking off his cloak under the warm sunshine

Soon the traveler grew so warm that he happily took off his cloak all on his own. The Sun won the contest, and the North Wind learned that gentleness and warmth win people over far better than force ever can.
