The North Wind and the Sun

One day, the North Wind and the Sun were talking in the sky. The North Wind said, "I am stronger!" The Sun smiled and said, "Is that so? Let’s see if we can get that traveler to take off his coat."

💬 The North Wind and the Sun Have a Contest

🤔 The traveler is wearing a coat. Do you think he is cold? Or hot?

The North Wind tried first. "Whoosh! Whoosh!" The North Wind blew a very strong wind. But the traveler became cold. "So cold, so cold!" The traveler held his coat very tightly.

💬 The North Wind Goes Whoosh!

🤔 When the wind is strong, will the traveler want to take off his coat? Or will he want to keep wearing it even more?

Next, it was the Sun’s turn. The Sun smiled and shone gently. Warm and cozy, warm and cozy. The traveler gradually began to feel warmer. "Ah, it feels so warm." The traveler unbuttoned his coat.

💬 The Sun Shines Warmly

🤔 Now that the traveler is feeling warm and cozy, how do you think he feels?

As the Sun kept shining gently and warmly, the traveler said, "I’m getting hot." Then the traveler took off his coat. The North Wind was surprised. The Sun said, "Sometimes being gentle works better than being forceful."

🤔 Which one’s way made the traveler take off his coat—the North Wind’s or the Sun’s?
