Snoozie, Sunny, and So-So Summary

Snoozie, Sunny, and So-So by Dafna Ben-Zvi

Winner of Best Early Reader/Chapter Book Award, 2021 Northern Lights Book Awards, with a STARRED review from Kirkus


Do you ever feel just so-so and like you might actually sink quite low? When you feel that way, what do you do? Does your mom, dad, friends or pet make you feel less blue?


Snoozie is a cat, who doesnt like moving. Sunny is a dog, whos afraid of the rain. Theyre very different, but they are the best of friends. One day, while out on their morning walk, they come upon a small, timid dog who has been feeling so-so for quite some time. How will this chance encounter change all their lives? Snoozie, Sunny, and So-So written by Dafna Ben-zvi, illustrated by Ofra Amit, and translated from Hebrew by Annette Appel, is a sweet and insightful story about friendship and the trust, hopefulness, and energy that it gives us all!

Snoozie, Sunny, and So-So Reviews

Amits soft-edged illustrations, done in a palette of muted blues, reds, and grays, depict unclothed animals who walk on all fours and play boisterously but inhabit human homes and write using pen and paper. There is nary a human in sight, which lends a whimsically surreal touch to this gentle friendship tale. In Appels translation from Hebrew, Ben-Zvis narrative unfolds with a delicate sweetness that never tips into the saccharine. An understated delight from Israel. -STARRED REVIEW, Kirkus
"Readers can pause after each page to admire the beautiful illustrations by Ofra Amit...Little So-So is as sweet and delicate as a chocolate cream puff (my favorite line in the book!) as well as socially anxious. Readers will be able to relate to Snoozies and Sunnys enjoyment of fun games and learn that just a little bit of bravery can go a long way toward bringing new friends into your life." Mia Spangenberg, WorldKidLit
