From New York Times bestselling author of The Leaf Thief comes the funny summery companion picture book that teaches kids about how the summer days lengthen and shorten again, adapting to change, and the seasons.

Squirrel and Bird are back, and this time it's summer! But squirrel is perplexed: a few weeks ago, the sun was still out at bedtime. Now he's brushing his teeth in the dark! There must be... A SUN THIEF!

With vibrant art and captivating characters, the magic of summer's changes are captured beautifully on each page as readers tag along on Squirrel's forest adventure. Is there truly a sun thief on the loose, or is something else going on? A perfect exploration of change--both seasonal, and the anxiety that change sometimes causes. Bonus material explaining about the changing of the length of days. Poised to be a new classic.

Pick up The Sun Thief if you are looking for:

  • A classic read for ages 4 and up
  • Books for the beginning and end of summer, ideal for your classroom, homeschool curriculum, and more!
  • Seasonal and educational stories about the changing seasons
