Together We Will Find The Sun: A Gentle Story About Feelings, Family, and Finding the Light by Aleasha Edis is a captivating children's book about Darby, a cute little cat who loves bedtime stories. The moon is about to rise, and it's time for Darby to read a bedtime story. Darby goes to the bookshelf to find the perfect book, but is disappointed he can't find anything. Darby is sad and walks away feeling frustrated. Darby's mom sees him and feels bad for him. She asks what the problem is, and Darby shares his worries with her. Darby's mom smiles and gives him a warm embrace. Today's bedtime story is going to be from the imagination. Darby's mom tells him a story about how to find the sun, which is a metaphor for how kids should handle their problems or worries.
This is a heartwarming book driven by the love of a parent or guardian. I loved how Aleasha Edis used phrases to represent the meaning of certain words, like "and the moon would cast its silver glow" to show moonrise and "the scorching hot sun rose with its golden rays" to show sunrise. This writing style conveys meaning and also helps in showing the beauty of nature and giving the book a more exciting and playful tone. The illustrations by Mayssa Kennouche are eye-catching and engaging. They are full of different colorful items that kids will spend time looking at, which is a way of helping them learn new words. Together We Will Find The Sun is a great story for kids, and it will teach them to always speak to their parents or guardians about their worries. I recommend it to young readers as well as teachers, parents, and guardians who could use it for educational purposes or bedtime stories.
