(3) PS Illustrated by Helen Oxenbury. As a little boy watches his puppy and chicks, he can see they're getting bigger. What's harder to observe is his own growth--until he takes out his winter clothes from the previous year. Oxenbury's soft watercolors breathe new life into this sixty-year-old story. The boy is depicted as curious, pensive, and ultimately joyous when he discovers, "I'm growing too."
