(4) PS Illustrated by Bonnie Adamson. This gentle picture book depicts an everyday ritual of a mother and her son. The expressive young boy calls "Rutabaga" as a request for attention and comfort; his mother never fails to reply "Boo!" The text is comprised (almost entirely) of this simple exchange; it's slight but affectionate and pairs well with Adamson's tender, slice-of-life illustrations, softly rendered in pencil and watercolor.
