(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ivan Chermayeff. A poetic, stream-of-consciousness text lets us inside a child's head as a parent gets him up and dressed. "I was thinking of trips / I was thinking of going far away in ships..." Clever use of typography differentiates the speakers (we never see either character, except on the cover); simple, bold illustrations effectively capture the child's imaginative musings.
