(4) PS Illustrated by Kelly Canby. A girl off to get a haircut considers various looks but finds that none of them is quite her: "I think I'll get a ponytail, / A swirls-like-macaroni tail, / To twirl while on the phone-y tail... / NO. That's my big sister." The be-yourself message and bouncy rhymes prompt art that, while not fashion-magazine-worthy, gets the job done.
