The clashing personalities of the SUN and Wind lead to an interesting conversation between the two about life, nature and science. We learn about day and night, seasons and the movement of the Earth. The cool and carefree wind soothes the hot-headed arrogant Sun and by the end of the stories they form a unique friendship only to get into another battle of wits in the next story.

These stories, while talking about concepts of nature and science are written to spark curiosity and make reading Hindi fun. The Illustrations are emotive and are designed to make difficult words easy to understand and remember. The style is playful and typography is used as an illustration layer to make the words come to life.
