Hugo is thrilled to discover he has a special power—to sneeze on command. But when his sister Poppy asks him to show off his new trick the next day, the sneezes won’t come. Fearing the loss of his new power, the pair set off to find a solution.

But when even cut grass and a gentle breeze won’t help, the two will have to look up to find the answer. Sun Sneezes is the second title in the Mini Mudlarks series, exploring sibling connections and the joys of carefree days.

About the Author

Kate Lindquist lives with her husband and young family in a small coastal town in regional Australia. She spends each day with her three little muses, who love exploring local rivers and beaches, fossicking in rockpools and mudlarking in the mangroves. In the evenings, with salty hair and sand between their toes, Kate and her children relive their adventures through storytelling. Kate draws inspiration for her writing by looking at the world through the lens of children, making observations of everyday happenings and celebrating life's simple moments.
