PS
At the end of a day's service as part of the "City Zoo" sign, Z heads home; on the way, he has twenty-five encounters. After passing an alien and crossing a bridge, Z snacks on cake and a doughnut. Each alphabetical item takes the shape of its initial letter, while the word appears in big, bold type. The outsize illustrations and powerful line conjure the entries with grace and humor.
