(2) PS Illustrated by Roger Duvoisin. This is a wholly pleasing version of the classic poem illustrated by Caldecott Medalist Duvoisin. The book's tall, narrow shape makes it ideal for vertical-chimney, steep-rooftop, and reindeer-flight scenes. Full-color spreads alternate with one-color (red plus black and white) spreads, providing additional pacing and rhythm (and the red accents add welcome warmth). It's all jolly, homey, unpretentious, and full of good cheer.
