(3) PS Illustrated by Joey Chou. In each of fourteen spreads, a monstrous parent-son pair (e.g., skeleton, ghost, yeti) whoop it up at a shared activity (baseball, instrument playing, igloo making) until it's time for bed. The rhymes are airtight, and the chunky digital illustrations in somber colors convey species-neutral love as well as delectable danger (note Red Riding Hood unknowingly walking past some tree-sitting beasts).
