(3) PS Illustrated by Shane W. Evans. This book reflects the importance of family and memories in the African-American community. Uncles and aunts who raised the young narrator's father are the centerpieces of this story that takes the reader from the kitchen table to a dip into the lake fully clothed. Evans's bright, stylized illustrations add to the joy of a visit with the "Old Ones."
