The North Wind and the Sun is one of
Aesop's Fables (
Perry Index 46). The moral it teaches about the superiority of
persuasion over force has made the story widely known.
The story concerns a competition between the
North Wind and the
Sun to decide which is the stronger of the two. The challenge was to make a passing traveler remove his cloak. However hard the North Wind blew, the traveler only wrapped his cloak tighter to keep warm, but when the Sun shone, the traveler was overcome with heat and soon took his cloak off.
