(1) PS Translated by Marilyn Nelson. Illustrated by Kevin Hawkes. Also translated by Pamela Espeland. Thirteen of Danish poet Rasmussen's children's poems are included in this collection, each with a bright burst of humor. Elves, animals, friendship, and bodily functions are common subjects. Hawkes's pencil and acrylic illustrations highlight the humor and the whimsy of the nonsense verses, but they also underscore the poems' innocence and, when called for, childlike dignity.

(3) K-3 Translated by Marilyn Nelson. Illustrated by Pierre Pratt. Translated from the Danish, this good-natured, surreal rhyming tale tells of a ladder that walks through the countryside, encountering people and animals that climb its rungs, only to disappear into the sky when they reach the top. Sun-drenched paintings, some of which fold out to emphasize the ladder's height even further, illustrate the curious adventures of this "tall, thin, red pedestrian."
