(4) PS Illustrated by Patrice Barton. "Tired little knees, / crawling to and from, / Tired little tummy, / full of yum, yum, yum." This book follows a familiar premise of naming body parts in treacly rhymes as a baby gets ready to go to sleep. Barton's pencil and mixed-media illustrations with whisper-soft digital coloring are calming and laudably diverse in terms of race and kinds of families.
