From creator Ileana Surducan (Nor's Holiday) comes The Lost Sunday--her Eisner Award-nominated, all-ages tale about the need for free time in the midst of our busy, everyday lives.
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 drudgery. Legend speaks of a seventh day to rest--Sunday--but everybody knows an evil witch stole it and keeps it locked away. When Nina finally says enough is enough, she sets out on an ambitious quest for rest, but will she be able to vanquish the witch and bring back the lost Sunday? Inspired by old folklore and fairy tales, this story shines a magical light on a present-day problem: burnout and the importance of leisure. A great read for kids and adults alike!Author Biography
