About the book...

After an especially sweltering day, the ocean sparkles and twinkles so invitingly that instead of slipping beneath the horizon, the sun plunges into the ocean itself.

When the sun sinks and loses its fire, Luna and Poppa’s yearly vacation on Summer Island suddenly goes dark. Luna knows the sun needs their help―the sky looks all wrong, and it’s neither day nor night! But it’s a big job to do all on their own.

To bring back daylight, they must think of creative solutions, seeking help from the local dolphins, monkeys, birds, and more. With the power of teamwork and imagination, can they find a way to return the sun to its rightful place, and set it ablaze once more?

This imaginative tale will enchant readers as Luna, Poppa, and their new friends of the sea, beach, and air rise to the challenge of fixing the sky once more and―literally―save the day.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This wondrous story is filled to the brim with imagination, and bursting at the seams with creativity. Each full color spread pulls us into the story about the day the sun decided a dip would be better than setting properly.

Yes, that's right, my friends. The sun decided to do something out of the ordinary throwing everyone and everything into chaos. Good thing a little girl was paying attention to its comings and goings because the longer it stays where it doesn't belong, the bigger, and more widespread the effects. With the help of some new friends, Luna, and Poppa are determined to restore order, and stand every chance of accomplishing their goals, after all there's no task too big that can't be made lighter by more hands.

A great Picture Book that teaches kiddos to respect the world around them, never give up on their goals, and always look to the future!

About the author...

Emma Pearl was excited to continue Luna and Poppa’s adventures from Mending the Moon (Page Street Kids) and thought it only logical the pair would save the sun next. Emma has traveled to over fifty different countries, including many beautiful tropical islands like the one in this story. Her love of storytelling began at a young age, spurred on by her relationship with her great uncle, renowned children’s author Roald Dahl. She now lives in New Zealand with her family and their one-eyed cat, Penelope.
