Dawn Wind is a historical novel for children and young adults written by Rosemary Sutcliff and published in 1961 by Oxford University Press, with illustrations by Charles Keeping.

When they leave the city and are later separated, Owain becomes a thrall to a Saxon lord in the swamps near the Isle of Wight, where he spends a number of years.

The story takes place at a turning point in the evolution of relations among the Saxons, invaders from the European mainland, and the indigenous Celts.

Kirkus Reviews wrote "True to form, Rosemary Sutcliff has dramatized another aspect of British history with the same skill and accuracy that characterized her earlier books."

The young Owain, in the first two episodes, was Glyn Dearman, while Kika Markham played Regina and Felton himself Einon Hen.
