Description:

Ever since they were little, Clement and Clyde had tried to best each other. But on Mama's birthday, they vow to get along and keep the peace. And they do... until a gently breeze stirs up their imaginations and blows away their common sense. Then these two can't resist topping each other with one windy tale after another ("You call that a wind? Why, one day it was so windy...") until, having been completely oblivious to how windy it's become, they finally notice that the wind has picked up practically everything in sight--the chickens, cows, outhouse, even Mama herself! Clement and Clyde do stop squabblin', at least long enough to work together to rescue Mama, in this wry, funny tale about sibling rivalry and one-upmanship. Illustrated in blazing southwestern colors and full of witty details, this is a tall tale that will have young and old alike laughing out loud. Yahoo!
