City Lullaby

(2) PS Illustrated by Carll Cneut. This lullaby counts down from ten cacophonous city noises to one as a baby in a hot-pink pram, almost invisible in the crazy quilt of street life, sleeps peacefully. The text rolls off the tongue, and the design of the text pages--words against a stylized, pastel close-up of the sleeping baby's face--gives the eyes a rest from the chaotic facing pages.
