One day Lila wakes up to something strange-the sun has forgotten to shine. The world outside is bathed in twilight, the birds are silent, and her usually cheerful neighbors are cloaked in sadness.
As Lila journeys through her town, she meets a glowing firefly, a talking cloud, and a wise old oak tree. Along the way, she discovers a powerful truth: sometimes, the light we need the most isn’t in the sky-it’s inside us.
Filled with warmth and wonder, The Day the Sun Forgot to Shine is a heartwarming tale about kindness, connection, and the magic of spreading joy.
