(3) PS Illustrated by Nadine Bernard Westcott. Harris's confident and open interracial family is expecting a new baby. Without explaining how "half of this cell comes from a woman's body. The other half comes from a man's," the narrator describes the growing fetus as it develops fingers, then fingernails, begins to kick, and finally arrives. Harris's text is informative and matter-of-fact; Wescott's illustrations are just as approachable and helpful.
