by Rose Ashby (Author)

Ten year-old Lucy is perpetually worried- about homework, piano lessons and surviving the fourth grade. One seemingly normal September day, school lets out early, and everything Lucy knows is changed forever.

Written in verse, The Sun Shone Anyway examines the events of September 11, 2001, through the eyes of our nation's youngest. This debut novel is a coming-of-age story, set against the backdrop of one of the darkest moments in American history.
