Mother Nature?

[fin3apple]

I read this book when I was quite young, so it's likely a middle-grade fiction but I'm not certain. I remember that it was about a woman who was an artist and she woke up one morning and had inherited the job of Mother Nature. That was basically the plot as far as I recall.

I distinctly remember that she woke up at her usual hour and it totally messed up the schedule of the sun rising, to the point that it was in the news or something like that.

Sorry I don't have anything more to go on!

Being a Green Mother by Piers Anthony?

This was my first thought as well. It's been *mumble* years since I read it, so I can't confirm that the oversleeping-the-sunrise scene is in there, but it feels like it would be.

Ah, no, I just checked but it's not that one. The one I'm thinking of was set in a much lighter tone and the main character sort of reminds me of Ms. Frizzle.

Thank you both for your help though!
