[net.books] "At the Back of the North Wind"

"At the Back of the North Wind" is a childrens book by George
McDonnald (sp?).  It is a story (if memory serves me) about
a little boy who, over a period of several years, goes on
adventures with the North Wind.  She comes for him at
unexpected times (he starts to wonder at times whether or
not she was just something he imagined) and carries him off
to learn lessons about life.  The story is not just for children,
but then most good childrens stories are not.  I would expound,
but my memory is not clear enough to make any fine points.

Any good book store with a childrens sections should carry it,
but if you run out of options you might try your local
Bible bookstore.
