(3) PS In a freewheeling style reminiscent of Chris Raschka's work, spirited images created with what appears to be cut paper illustrate silly wordplay revolving around a monkey, a hippo, and a giraffe ("A monkey among us. / A monkey among a fungus. / A monkey, humongous. / A hippopotamus. / A hippopotamus hops a bus..."). The art adds coherence and dimension to the brief, amusing text.
