The Wind and the Sun

One day there was an argument between the wind and the sun. Both said they were stronger than the other. They saw a man traveling on the road and decided to make a test to see which was stronger and able to get the man’s coat off.
The wind began to blow and blow very hard. He nearly ripped the coat from the man’s back but the man grabbed the coat and wrapped it even more tightly around himself and kept going. The wind got tired because the man just kept his coat on.
Then the sun tried. He shone brightly and the clouds disappeared. Soon the air was warm and dry and the sun kept on shining. Soon the man had sweat running down his face. He was so hot that he finally took off his coat and carried it, looking for a shady spot to rest.

The wind and sun were having a
1. song time.
2. fight.
3. argument.
The sun and wind each said they were
1. stronger than the other.
2. nicer than the other.
3. smart.
The wind and sun decided to make a man
1. whistle a tune.
2. get mad.
3. take off his coat.
The wind tried but the man
1. wrapped his coat around him tighter.
2. threw his coat on the ground.
3. put his coat over his head.
The sun shone brightly and
1. the wind blew harder.
2. the clouds disappeared.
3. the rain fell.
The sun made the man
1. sweat and get hot so he took off the coat.
2. smile and sing.
3. wrap his coat around him tight.
The winner of this test was the

2. wind.
3. sun.
It is more powerful to
