Sunny’s Runny Nose

This charming new children’s book by author Charisse Ross-Callahan is perfect for any parent looking for a new favorite read to share with their little ones.

Sunny’s Runny Nose details a day in the life of Sunny, a sweet and spirited girl. Her optimism takes a bit of a hit, however, when she wakes up with a horrible runny nose.

While raising her own kids, Callahan noticed that there was a dearth of children’s books about feeling sick. Illness, despite protective parents’ best efforts, will happen to every child. Sunny’s adventure with her runny nose will teach children how to understand sickness. Sunny shows them that there is nothing to fear when they have a cold. Even though they might feel bad for a little while, they will soon be back to their normal sunny selves.

Sunny also teaches kids to always tell a parent when they feel sick. These lessons are invaluable to children starting school and being exposed to the motley assortment of germs a classroom might contain.
