(3) PS Illustrated by Stephanie Graegin. A couple describes milestones in their child's life through toddlerhood: "You were the first to lift your head, to look at the trees and flowers and sky," and so on. Meticulous mixed-media illustrations gently escort the reader through the years, which the parents hypothesize may include "a second-- / or a third" child. It's heartwarming stuff--in a good way.
