Synopsis
A vanished flight. A hidden island. Six remarkable children raised beyond the edges of civilization step into the modern world and quietly unsettle it. Headlines multiply, cameras swarm, and a chorus of testimonies and hearings asks the same disarming question: are these children angels, or a mirror held up to our own potential. Told through an ambassador's field notes and the creator who loved them, The Children of Sunday follows Monday through Saturday across borders and into the rooms where power, faith, and reason try to name what they do not yet understand. What emerges is not a spectacle, but a gentle revolution of attention, in gardens and schools and city squares, where small acts change the temperature of a room. This is a story about how we listen, how we see one another, and how creation becomes a language that anyone can learn. Without giving away its turns, the book invites a simple truth with profound consequences: we become what we create. The Children of Sunday is moving, thoughtful, and quietly bold, a portrait of connection, responsibility, and hope that lingers long after the last page. A New York Times Best Seller.

About the Author
Kevin Michael Olis (1960-2025) was an artist, writer, and educator whose life centered on creation and community. Born in the Chicago area, he earned a degree from Southern Illinois University and a master's in education from Lewis University. He taught art and coached golf in Florida, inspiring students to see creativity as a way of life. A prolific portraitist and painter, he produced thousands of works, illustrated books, and created medical illustrations for Waterman Florida Hospital. His public art appears in more than one hundred venues, many in schools around Chicago. Olis also founded Community Creations, a collaborative program that brought students, seniors, churches, hospitals, and companies together to co create large sculptures. He retired near the ocean in DeLand, Florida, where he continued to make art and write. He is remembered for his generous spirit, joyful imagination, and belief that we become what we create.
