About this title

About the Author:

(Illustrator) As a child, Christopher Canyon was deeply touched by John Denver. "John's songs gave me hope, joy, and an unbounded belief in possibilities," he says. "Sunshine On My Shoulders is a beautiful, moving song of giving, sharing and appreciation. I feel the most powerful aspect of the song is its pure sincerity." Christopher is an award-winning artist, musician and performer dedicated to sharing the joy and importance of the arts with children, educators and families. Two of his previous books for Dawn Publications, The Tree in the Ancient Forest and Stickeen, have won the Benjamin Franklin Award as best illustrated children's picture book of the year.
