Where does the sun go when it says goodbye?
From her warm, sunlit home in Jamaica, a curious child named Kaia spends her day basking in golden rays, playing on the sandy beach, and swinging with laughter under a bountiful cashew tree. But as the sun dips below the horizon, questions begin to form in her mind: Why does the sun leave? Where does it go?
With the comforting presence of her grandmother by day and her mother at bedtime, Kaia begins a gentle journey to understand the magic of day turning into night.
Kaia and the Sun is a beautifully illustrated, heartwarming picture book that celebrates:
The natural wonder of the sun and sky
Multi-generational family love
The vibrant beauty of Jamaica
A child's curiosity and emotional world
Our shared connection to the natural world
Our shared connection to each other as global neighbors
