(3) PS Illustrated by Stefano Vitale. This reillustrated edition of a bedtime book pairs Zolotow's evocative word pictures with Vitale's luxuriously colored illustrations to explore the different ways animals sleep ("the snowy / crane / sleeps / standing / on one long / leg / like / a flower / on its / stem"). Preschoolers will be entranced by the simple yet informative text and by Vitale's glowing paintings on wood.
