Destiny Ink: Sleepover Surprise

Author: Adeola Sokunbi

In this imaginative debut first chapter book, we meet Destiny Ink, who loves doodling and drawing, about to go on her very first sleepover at her best friend’s house. Destiny is excited, but when she thinks about sleeping outside she gets a funny feeling in her tummy. What if there are monsters or scary creatures that come out in the dark? She decides to have a practice sleepover in her bedroom the night before, but after hearing strange noises coming from her homemade tent, she is very surprised to meet Trog, a monster who has got lost in the human world. He is quite nervous and scared, so he can’t be a bad monster, right? As Destiny shows Trog the exciting things that happen on a sleepover, she realises that sharing these experiences with friends mean it isn’t so scary after all. In fact, sleepovers are inktastic!

Highly illustrated throughout, Destiny Ink is a heartwarming short story about using your creativity and imagination to deal with tricky situations and develop empathy and is ideal for readers venturing into chapter books.

The second book in the series is due out in October 2024.
