Beyond the Flowers

Description

Children's book illustrator and author Tasha Tudor created watercolor worlds of beauty and innocence, complete with happy children and frolicking animals. Her work went into books of her own and those of other authors during an award-winning career that began with Pumpkin Moonshine in 1938 and ended with The Corgiville Christmas in 2003. Few fans know, though, that Tasha also created cartoons that only her family saw. One of Tudor's sons, Tom, shares his favorite in Beyond the Flowers: The Adventures of Upchuck Saunders . The book features a foreword by Tom along with The Adventures of Upchuck Saunders ,the author's tale of two plumbers and their wealthy client, a gardener who faces a moral dilemma when a sewage problem causes her iris to achieve phenomenal growth. Should she share the secret to her success with the selection committee of the local garden club? Beyond the Flowers: The Adventures of Upchuck Saunders features original pencil drawings enhanced with color by modern technology. Fans will love seeing new—and different—creations by the famed illustrator and author.
