The Wind happens to be a wordless book, which is perfect for young kids, preferably elementary aged students, to use their imagination when telling the story. It's about a mouse tearing apart paper from one world and into another. Teachers are able to show this book to their students and help them use their imagination, so they can figure out what's happening in the story.
Cute wordless book with a portion of the front cover seemingly nibbled out by the mouse that appears in the nibbled space.
A mouse nibbles his way through a piece of paper into a room as an artist leaves. The mouse opens a box of oil paint tubes, squeezes out the colors and mixes them as he paints lines on a piece of paper. Finally, after making a bit of a mess, he leaves from the hole he made at the beginning with his tail full of paint.

Delightful and clever little cutaway book. Where is the trapped mouse? No one know until the last but one page. Speechless as the book is wordless. Originally published as The plane - a bit of a giveaway.
A fun wordless picture book which allows children to use their creativity to invent a story of their own. It is especially useful for emergent readers of all ages. The illustrations depict a curious little mouse who discovers a set of paints and continues to test out each color on a blank sheet of paper. I thought the illustrations in this book were well done but they didn't really stick with me it is for that reason I choose to rate this book a 4 star. I would recommend it though as I think show more every child should be exposed to the free rein fun of a wordless picture book. show less
