How the Sun Was Won

Written by Tom Haviv
Illustrated by Jessica Tamar Deutsch

In this luminous children’s fable, the sun fails to rise, leaving a town in darkness—and the children without their parents. Desperate yet undeterred, they wander through a surreal “Nighttime City,” alive with neon-lit zoos, mysterious bakeries, and strange creatures. But their parents are nowhere to be found.

As despair thickens, a brave girl proposes an audacious idea: if they cannot find the sun, perhaps they must weave it themselves. The children mimic the lost rituals of adulthood, their small hands crafting light in an attempt to conjure a new dawn.

A tale of wonder and resilience, How the Sun Was Won explores loss, mystery, and the magic of collective creation.
