Under the Sunday Tree
Author(s): Eloise Greenfield

An award-winning picture book poetry collection for children by the legendary poet Eloise Greenfield with illustrations by critically acclaimed artist Amos Ferguson.

"The perfect collaboration between two master image-makers." —School Library Journal

The twenty poems in this collection are filled with love, humor, dignity, and a deep appreciation for our colorful surroundings. Eloise Greenfield's rich verse is accompanied by the fresh, vivid paintings of Amos Ferguson that are a love song to his native Bahamas. 

With joyful poems including "To Catch a Fish," "Lucky Little Birds," "To Friendship," and more, children will absolutely love this accessible picture book.

Review(s):
"Too special for just once-a-week reading, Eloise Greenfield's 20 exuberant poems are matched by the bright colors of Mr. Amos Ferguson's life-filled paintings. His native Caribbean glows as vividly in the words as in the full-page primitive pictures. A perfect collaboration between two master imagemakers."
"An enthusiastic tour of island life."
