(3) PS Illustrated by Edward Miller. In this inventive alphabet book, each letter stands for a particular vehicle or road sign intended for a driver. Pearson takes her time with each letter, creating unlikely poetry with her descriptions: e.g., a forklift has "long, steel fingers"; a quarry excavator "drop[s] rocks like crumbs." Miller's flat geometric images are inviting.
