Rain or shine, two siblings always find the silver lining in More Than Sunny, a joyful, shining picture book debut.

Is there anything better than a sunny day?
How about a day that’s sunny . . . and birdy?
Or breezy and buzzy?
Blue and wishy?
Cloudy and fishy?

In this enchanting, buoyant picture book debut from author/illustrator Shelley Johannes, a pair of siblings find the bright side during all the seasons of a year—bringing optimism, curiosity, and wonder to each situation they encounter, no matter the weather.

“The playful rhymes flow easily, beg to be read aloud, and would work well as creative writing prompts in elementary classrooms . . . A bouncy and buoyant take on the changing seasons.” —Kirkus Reviews

“The rhythmic prose, shown in a crayon-esque lettering, traces the siblings’ passing days and the seasons . . . Dynamic art rendered in pencil and mixed media on tracing paper and finished digitally matches the text’s energy in this charming seasonal perusal.” —Publishers Weekly
