Omschrijving

The Sleepy Summer is a rhyming children's story inspired by the real events of 1816, the year known as the summer that never came. When the weather stays cold, the skies turn grey, and the sun seems to disappear, children begin to wonder what happened to summer.

Through simple, gentle rhymes, the story follows how people face an unusual season and learn to adapt, stay hopeful, and support one another. The book helps young readers understand that unexpected changes can feel confusing-but they can also be overcome.

Based on true historical events, The Sleepy Summer turns a real moment in history into a comforting and age-appropriate story. It focuses on resilience, patience, and empathy, showing children that difficult times do not last forever.

As the second book in the Overcoming series, this title supports emotional learning while also encouraging early literacy through rhyme and read-aloud storytelling. It also introduces children to history in a gentle, engaging way.

Bonus material includes a kid-friendly history section about the real events of 1816 and fun activity pages with discussion questions and drawing prompts that help children learn, reflect, and engage with the story.

Ideal for families, classrooms, and young readers ages 7-10, The Sleepy Summer reassures children that even when things feel uncertain, hope and courage remain.
