(4) PS This is an assortment of twenty-six rhymes, mostly well known with a few unusual selections, such as "Elisabeth, Elspeth, Betty, and Bess" and "Honest John Boldero"; the titles are listed only in a table of contents. Marks's graceful pencil, ink, and watercolor art includes a small nod to diversity. The images reflect the illustrator's English background, but the clothing in the pictures suggests many different eras.
