It’s a beautifully illustrated kids book about an Italian man who wants to be an artist (I think his name is Mr. Lemonjello or Lemoncello) but he has a family to support so he makes a living painting signs instead. When he dies at the end God rewards him by putting him to work painting sunsets. (It makes me tear up because I think of my artist mom painting sunsets now too.)
