(4) PS Illustrated by Deborah Ousley Kadair. This cheerful volume based on a song introduces readers to a different Louisiana specialty (gumbo, beignets) each day of the week. The refrain "All you lucky children, come and eat it up. Come and eat it up!" gets tiresome without the musical context. Kadair's clever mixed-media collages (primarily cut-paper) use simple shapes to display the meals. A recipe for red beans and rice is included. Glos.
