Book 3 in ‘The Adventures of Sunny’ Series is here!

Sunny is clever, thoughtful, and endlessly kind – the sort of friend who helps without being asked. So why does it feel like no one ever notices?

If you have a quiet, deeply-feeling child at home – the one who gives so much and sometimes gets overlooked – this story was written for them.

The Adventures of Sunny: The Schoolyard is the third book in our gentle picture-book series for children aged 4 to 8.

What the story is about

At school, Sunny gives so much and is somehow still unseen. Until one morning she finally puts up her hand, bursting with a big, bright idea – and the whole classroom reacts in a way she never expected.

What happens next follows her out to the quiet of the schoolyard, and all the way home – and leads her to a truth every child deserves: how others see you is not always who you are.

Who this book is for

I wrote The Schoolyard for the quiet, tender-hearted child – the noticer, the helper, the one who feels things deeply and sometimes needs reminding that being themselves is more than enough. It’s a comforting companion for:

• children who feel overlooked, left out, or unseen
• quiet kids, introverts, observers and deep feelers
• little ones learning about kindness, confidence and self-worth
• families who love a warm, reassuring bedtime read

Why parents love the series

The Adventures of Sunny is a quiet kind of book – no loud lessons, no talking-down. Each story simply shows a child learning something true about themselves. Book by book, the series grows with your child:

1. Market Day – you are loved exactly as you are
2. First Day of School – your joy is yours to keep
3. The Schoolyard – your worth doesn’t depend on being the loudest in the room
4. The Firefly Night (coming soon) – the light you carry is yours to shine

A note for the grown-up reading aloud

This one opens a gentle door to talk about integrity – feeling unseen and being kind even when no one’s watching – a comforting story for any time of day and especially at bed time.
