(4) PS Photographs by John-Francis Bourke & John-Francis Bourke. "Hands can wave / to say 'hello.' / Hands can touch things / HIGH and low. / Hands can learn / to tie a shoe. / Hands can say, / 'I love you.'" The banal rhymes don't always scan, but the book's large, candid-looking color photos, set on inviting solid-color screens, of young children digging, clapping, and otherwise acting out the text are appealing.
