Summer Sun Risin'




 

Summer Sun Risin'

by W. Nikola-Lisa
Lee & Low Books, Inc.

From sunrise to sunset, an African American boy spends an activity-filled summer day helping his family on their farm. Feeding animals, mowing hay, picking vegetables, and eating freshly caught fish fill the hours. Don Tate's sun-drenched paintings depict the family's daily activities and trace the sun as it travels across the sky.
