All Night, All Day: A Child's First Book of African-American Spirituals
The words and music to 20 spirituals are accompanied by luminous full-color paintings. Ashley Bryan's art provides a lush, visual interpretation of well-known songs such as "I'm Going to Eat at the Welcome Table," "Peter, Go Ring the Bells," and the title song, "All Night, All Day." This is a welcome addition to Bryan's earlier children's books interpreting this distinctive African American contribution to the music of the United States. ©1991 Cooperative Children's Book Center
