A FAMILY SUNDAY SPENT DOING THINGS LIKE GOING TO CHURCH TOGETHER.
No day is like Sunday! There's sleeping late and a delicious breakfast and time for everyone to look over the fat newspaper. Then, dressed in their Sunday best, the family sets out for church. With relatives and friends, they rejoice in beautiful music and the preacher's inspiring words.
Afterwards, it's a subway trip to Grandma and Grandpa's, and an afternoon just to be together. Most of all, Sunday is for family!
Synthia Saint James's simple text and bold, vibrant paintings of an African-American family celebrate kinship and this very special day.
Excerpt
