Come Sunday

Softly, quietly begins the day of the week that, for LaTasha, is always full of glorious sounds: the pipe organ, tambourine, and drum; the footfalls of ushers marching down the aisle of the sanctuary; the sweet harmonies of the choir; and the rich vibrato of the preacher s voice. LaTasha sings along with the congregation, confident that Heaven hears each joyful note. Sometimes funny, sometimes serious, Nikki Grimes poems and the lush tapestry of colors in Michael Bryant s illustrations celebrate a day of worship viewed through the eyes of an exuberant little girl.
