Solstice: Around the World on the Longest, Shortest Day

Jen Breach, illustrated by 14 Global Artists

Set on the June solstice, this book looks at children’s everyday lives around the world through one shared day. In the Northern Hemisphere, it is the year’s longest day; in the Southern Hemisphere, it is the shortest. The book explains that Earth’s tilt toward the Sun produces these contrasting lengths of daylight. Sunrise and sunset provide a common thread across a global story that connects diverse places and experiences.
