(2) PS Illustrated by Mélisande Potter. Gershator smoothly integrates lullabies from Africa, Spain, and the Caribbean into original verse in this tribute to babysitters. Both text and pictures follow baby and caregiver through a day of games and songs; a soothing refrain traces the babysitter's efforts to calm and entertain. Potter depicts the Caribbean setting with stylized pictures in island pastels.
