(2) PS Illustrated by Marc Brown. When the zoo animals start having babies, two pandas and a tree kangaroo bemoan their childless state. Soon, however, the three find themselves with families that aren't what they expected. Sierra's rhymes include plenty of surprises; Brown's illustrations feature a gently colored palette and little patterns. Like the duo's Wild About Books, this title is good both for group sharing and as a bedtime story.
