(4) PS Illustrated by John Sandford. Glowing, soft-focus paintings move outward from a little girl's room, where an African-American mother is putting her young daughter to bed. Across the world, animals and other people get ready for sleep as well. The images in the lilting text are standard-issue--e.g., tucking in the stuffed animals while "all the animals are tucked away in nature's bed outdoors"--but nonetheless soothing.
