Sunny by Celia Krampien - ESSENTIAL

Sunny by Celia Krampien. PICTURE BOOK. Roaring Brook Press (Macmillan), 2020. $18. 9781250316608

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL  

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Most people would be sad if it rained, or they were carried away by a wind gust, or they were dropped in the ocean, or they were late for work, but not Sunny. Sunny keeps seeing the bright side and keeping her composure, until she doesn’t.

In such a short book, I felt very attached to Sunny. She seemed so composed and then so real when she lost her composure. I often get bored with books with a limited color palette, but I really liked the greens and yellows that made up the illustrations in this book.
