(2) PS Illustrated by Erik Blegvad. Characterized by infectious rhyme schemes and verse forms varying from couplets to limericks, these twenty-nine poems (including nine new offerings) are attuned to the playful language of preschoolers and roll trippingly off the tongue. Illustrated with elegantly delicate humor, the book contains something for every taste: nonsense and good sense, wonderful imagery, compelling rhythms, evocative descriptions.
Reviewer: Mary M. Burns | Horn Book Magazine Issue: March, 2000
