Sunrise on the Reaping

Imagine a super exciting book called 'Sunrise on the Reaping'! It's a new story from the world of The Hunger Games, but it happens way before Katniss Everdeen was even born. This book tells us about a character named Haymitch Abernathy when he was a young boy.

He's going to be in the 50th Hunger Games, which sounds like a really big deal! This story is all about what happened 24 years before the first Hunger Games book you might know.

You might remember Haymitch from the other Hunger Games books. He's a grown-up who helps the tributes, like Katniss and Peeta. But in 'Sunrise on the Reaping', we get to see him as a kid!

We'll learn about his life and how he ended up in the 50th Hunger Games. It's like seeing a superhero's origin story! This book is written by Suzanne Collins, the same amazing author who wrote all the other Hunger Games books.

This book is super special because it takes us back in time! It's like a time machine to the past of Panem. We get to see how things worked in the country of Panem a long, long time ago.

The story is about how people in charge try to trick others and make them believe things that aren't true. It also shows how hard it is to be in control of a whole country. It's a story about big ideas and exciting adventures!

Guess what? This exciting book is going to become a movie too! It's like when your favorite book gets turned into a film you can watch on the big screen. The movie is planned to come out in November 2026. So, you can read the book and then see the story come to life in a movie. It's going to be so cool to see Haymitch's story unfold on screen!
