A heart-warming, fresh and original story about family and friendship from brand-new picture book author, writer and performer Jordan Stephens.
Sunny loves jigsaw puzzles – the bigger the better. When she completes one, she gets a warm, happy honeybee buzz. One day, her Gran gives her a ONE-THOUSAND-PIECE puzzle. Piece after piece, all by herself, she puts together the picture, until … DISASTER! The final piece is missing. Sunny may be small, but she is very determined – so she sets off to find it.
As the day whizzes by in a whirl of new places and friends, Sunny discovers that looking for something is every bit as fun as finding it, and that perhaps the missing piece was there all along …

Daddy says this book is written by a musician who was successful for a few years with his friend.
But then they they started to make music apart from each other and this didn't work out well for their group in the end.
In the story Sunny worries about losing the warm feeling she gets whenever she finishes a jigsaw puzzle.
The nice feeling only lasts for a moment so immediately after she finishes one jigsaw she always wants to start on another.
I think you need to be patient with jigsaws because they're not always easy.
But Sunny seems to be very good at doing them all by herself, until one day Sunny's Gran helps her to make a discovery.
Sunny walks out by herself into the community because she needs to find the last piece of the biggest puzzle she's ever attempted.
It's important to Sunny that she visits whoever might mistakenly have it so she can feel the buzz.
She feels grown up as she goes out to the different homes of her neighbours.
She realises the world outside is similar to puzzles. The houses appear as though they're hugging the road just like the edges of a puzzle connect with each other.
And Sunny discovers that along with her thirst for knowledge it's teamwork that can provide an even more meaningful experience.

Really good book would recommend it! It will show you how good the feeling of friendship is rather than finishing a puzzle. Remember friendship is more important than a puzzle!
