The Sun knew it was a very serious decision because the Earth cannot exist without its rays but it agreed. The Wind was sure it wins.

The Sun and the Wind started to play. They played almost the whole day. Luckily the Sun won so it didn’t have to stop shining. But the Wind got furious. He started to shout at the Sun: „You’ve cheated! It is impossible that you won! I am the champion among all the elements!”

Angry Wind started to blow as strong as it could. It caused that all the clouds came to that part of the sky. The Sun was so happy after winning the game that it didn’t let them to cover it up.

The Sun was shining and the Rain was raining at the same time. It has never happened before. The Ground, the Sky and the Air were extremly surprised!
