While Willy Wind is hard at work on his wind farm, his friends Sammy Sun, Rosie Rainbow, Flo Snow, Ronny Rain, Harry Hail, and Colin Cloud are working hard too - planning a surprise party for their pal. Always kind and inclusive, they've taken a chance on inviting the Pollutants to the party too. As they look back on their own birthdays throughout the year, they describe the various seasons, making this a lovely way to introduce this early learning topic to young kids. Willy Wind's Birthday Surprise is the eighth book in the Weatherbies series of curriculum-aligned picture books that use these lovable weather characters to make it easy for young children to remember key concepts about the world around us. It models pro-social behaviours such as compassion, nurturing friendships and taking care of the planet.
This book is also available in Irish as Gearoid Gaoth agus a La Breithe. Choose one book or get the pair for parallel learning or shared reading in mixed-language groups.

Entertainment and education for young children
Written by Yvonne Fleming and illustrated by James Salenga, the colourful picture books in the Weatherbies series are perfect for introducing eco topics and other concepts to Early Years Foundation Stage children. The Weatherbies are a lovable community of friends who live, learn and play in the wonderful world of Skytown. Through their interactions with the world around them, each other, and the pesky Pollutants, the Weatherbies gang teach pro-social behaviours and values such as co-operation and responsibility.
Language, music and learning
The book series is also available in Irish, and can be used as parallel texts, for children reading them side by side, or for non-Irish-speaking parents to read along with children learning Irish.
Learning is easier when music is involved! Kids can sing along with accompanying songs, The Willy Wind Song and Seasons Come & Seasons Go on streaming platforms. The album Sing a Song with the Weatherbies, featuring Tony Kearney, introduces the Weatherbies gang to little music lovers, and Eco Tunes by the Weatherbies, featuring Clare Galway, has a whole host of new eco-topical songs such as Put It In the Bin, Little Honey Bees, Rosie Rainbow's Recycling Song and many more.
Deepen the learning from the book with the Seasons episode of the companion series Fun Topics with the Weatherbies.
