The sun isn't sleepy

The sun isn't sleepy

Alarick’s country is very strange. It has been many days now that night has not falen, and no one seems to be worried. Moko decides to head towards the horizon to see what is keeping the sun from setting and Alarick goes with him. Along the way, Moko tries to lull the sun to sleep with a lullaby from his country. The sun looks like it will set, but stops short and rises again. Perhaps the ocean is frozen at the horizon and is keeping the sun from setting. He decides to ask the fishermen and one of them responds that the world is filled with such mysteries and that it is more precious for him to learn the secrets of his friend than that of the sun.

The sun isn't sleepy A tale by Arnaud de Buchy Pedagogical content by Emmanuelle Reyss & Jean-Baptiste Lorenzo Illustrated by Sonia Grandame & Joachim Hérissé Le Regard Sonore Editions


One day, the sun was shining it's most beautiful and warmest of sunrays. It was even melting the snow. Moko, who very much liked this country, had noticed something peculiar about it though. He went to find his friend Alarick.
It's strange, Moko said. It seems that the night no longer comes; and the sun no longer sleeps! This is the way it is, Moko, answered Alarick. The sun will go to sleep one night, don't worry. But Moko doubted Alarick. I must find a way to put the sun to sleep, Moko said. And with that, he decided to start walking towards the horizon. Moko left so quickly that Alarick didn't even have a chance to follow him.
On his way, Moko remembered Mei-Li's song… And he thought that it might lull the sun to sleep. He started to sing the song.The sun started to descend towards the horizon, as if it was going to sleep, but suddenly, it climbed back again to the center of the sky.
