It is weird that even ChatGPT says Martin invented it. According to it, there has never been a documented or written use of the phrase prior to Martin.

The phrase “sweet summer's child" became a popular way of describing an innocent, naive person (especially among American writers) during the early Victorian era. It was used by a number of authors during the 1840s, notably:- Fredrika Bremer (1840), James Staunton Babcock (1849) in The West Wind and Mary Whitaker (1850) in The Creole.

And the saying was completely dead by the 20th century. No one said sweet summers child after that till Game of Thrones
