(4) PS Illustrated by Amy Wummer. A little boy helps his father with a day's chores that include taking out the garbage, putting together a tricycle, and pushing the shopping cart, but the boy doesn't seem to notice that even his best efforts lead to small disasters. The predictable, gently humorous story is illustrated with lighthearted exaggerated paintings, but both art and story lack originality.
