About this book
A Bit of Sunshine by Unknown invites listeners into a sunlit Victorian seaside adventure where young Kate’s bright curiosity turns a simple drive into a day of discovery. This charming children’s fiction follows Kate, her mam ma and pa pa, and their gentle outing after a summer rain—horses, a fresh breeze, gleaming green grass, and the wide, wild surf set the scene for small moments of wonder. Along the way Kate notices a fishing village, a busy boat, and a shy boy who catches her smile, each vignette painted with the warm, illustrative detail of 19th-century youth literature.
Rooted in the 1879 tradition of illustrated moral tales, A Bit of Sunshine captures family warmth, childhood imagination, and an affectionate portrait of seaside life without high drama or modern haste. The language is simple and lyrical, making it ideal for read-aloud listening.
Perfect for parents seeking classic children’s fiction to share at bedtime, fans of nostalgic Victorian stories, and anyone who enjoys gentle, observational tales about nature and family. Listen for a cozy, timeless reminder that small pleasures can brighten an ordinary day.
