A rich, elderly man has a dream to show his grandson the sun, which is hidden above the polluted sky. When his grandchild requests to build a tower to the sun, the old man agrees. Will they ever see the sun?
Along with Colin Thompson’s other books, The Tower to the Sun has beautiful illustrations. Many people will agree that his pictures grab the imagination. Every time you look at a picture, it reveals something new.
This book can be read to both genders. I would recommend this book to be read to children over seven plus. Colin Thompson takes us on a weird and wonderful story.
