"As one of six kids, 12-year-old Sunday Fowler feels that she is invisible; most of the time her parents don't even call her by the correct name. When the family moves to a small town, Sunday finds a hidden unpublished manuscript and secret letters. She thinks uncovering the anonymous author will help her become famous and stand out. Eland does a good job of developing the characters, even the minor ones. The reader is drawn into helping Sunday uncover the mysterious author, using tidbits scattered throughout the novel. Also amusing are the antics of Sunday's younger siblings. Tweens and teens will relate to the emotions Sunday experiences. This novel is a good selection for independent reading or a class read-aloud. Recommended."

Eclipsed by her two glamorous older sisters and three ebullient younger brothers, the often forgotten Sunday tries to make her mark the summer her contractor father and family move to a small town to renovate a library. The family's unwieldy but realistic dynamics are tinged with humor, even as Sunday's insecurities ramp up: her family forgets her at a rest stop, and she's iced out when her siblings choose rooms in their new house. When Sunday, a voracious reader, finds an anonymous manuscript in the library basement, she and her new friend Jude set out to locate the author. Eland crafts a memorable cast of small-town child and adult characters and effectively integrates their story lines. While the novel can be a bit slow, readers' affection for Sunday won't waver as this independent protagonist finds a way to balance her desire to be noticed with a growing maturity." --Publishers Weekly, "Eland (Scones and Sensibility) crafts a graceful, leisurely paced story about 11-year-old Sunday Fowler, who yearns to stand out in her large family.

Synopsis
A sweet middle-grade title about getting lost in a big family and unlikely friendship. Almost-twelve-year-old Sunday Fowler is a middle-of-the-middle child, and it's the absolute worst. Her sisters say she's too young. Her brothers say she's too old. And her parents remember the dog's name more often than they remember hers. But standing out is hard work when you have to help repair an old library and make sure your siblings don't steal your new best friend--or ruin all your plans. Then Sunday finds something in the library's basement that might make her so famous no one will forget her name ever again. But revealing her finding means stirring up secrets that some people in the town hoped to keep buried. Sunday must decide if some things--loyalty, trust, friendship--are worth more than her name in the headlines. A Summer of Sundays is a charming, funny celebration of family and finding friendship in unexpected places.
