The Lost Sunday

Nina lives in a dusty town, haunted by the six angry wolves of the week - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day brings never-ending chores, and no one can rest until they are done. Legend speaks of a seventh, kinder wolf, but everybody knows an evil witch stole it and keeps it locked away. But Nina has had enough, so she sets on an ambitious quest - go to the forgotten realms, vanquish the witch, bring back Sunday and enough free time for everyone. *** The Lost Sunday is an imaginative new twist on old fairy-tales that shines a light on a very present-day problem: burnout and the quest for free time. For children, it's a colourful journey into a land of magic, filled with whimsical creatures, strange trials and lessons about kindness to all, yourself included. The grownups will see a second layer - a glimpse of hope: striking the perfect, delicate balance between work and relaxation. What we dream of the most is a parent and child reading The Lost Sunday together ❤ and then start a useful and pleasant conversation about the value of self care. *** The Lost Sunday first print run was super successfully funded on Kickstarter in the spring of 2021. The book was commercially available in October 2021. The funds allowed for a print run of 1000 English copies, out of which about 700 were available for sale.
