PS
"I've bean thinking of u." This diminutive book is a love letter spiked with produce puns (bean for been, berry for very, etc.); the featured fruit or vegetable, which Ehlert creates with her signature cut-paper technique, commands each spread. A fine touch: each spread, combining the produce illustration with letters, numbers, and hearts, doubles as a rebus.
