(3) PS Illustrated by Tomie dePaola. Set in 1840s New Hampshire, dePaola's watercolor and ink illustrations, framed with quilt pattern designs, exude rustic spirit and wholesome charm. This board book edition uses a bolder font that has an Old World feel. While omitting two illustrations from the original picture book means the text is longer on two pages, this version is still an overall success.
