PS
It's all in the perspective when it comes to size, as demonstrated in this clever picture book. The first page opens on a hugely magnified ladybug, labeled "Big bug." Our view pulls back so we see the now-little ladybug resting on a "big leaf," all part of an ever-widening rural scene. Minimal text and richly colored illustrations add to the fun.
