(2) PS With boundless energy and considerable clatter, a penguin child plays while a homemaking mom--or dad--makes repeated requests for quiet. The resourceful penguin figures out how to play quietly (donning socks to jump rope), and at last we see the reason for all the shushing: a sleeping baby. The illustrations are in the style of Lucy Cousins and hold similar appeal, and the sturdy pages will stand up to eager fingers.
