The minute Mom leaves, Yvette asks, "Is it time yet, Dad?" Dad answers, "Not yet, Yvette." Then Yvette and her dad get busy beacause there's a lot to do before Mom comes home, like clean the house and bake a birthday cake.

Helen Ketteman is an Albert Whitman author.
PreSchool-K-- A simply stated picture book about an African-American family's birthday celebration. It's Yvette's mother's birthday, and the child and her father are vacuuming, dusting, baking, shopping, and decorating. The excitement of planning and preparation makes the youngster quite anxious, and Dad is constantly saying, ``Not yet, Yvette.'' The illustrations are uneven. Full-page spreads appear static, and some illustrations of the characters exhibit cartoonlike stylism. The text and illustrations do not set a mood of gentle patience but rather one of annoyance, and the repetitive ``Not yet, Yvette'' becomes quite obnoxious. A good thematic idea not well executed. --Barbara Osborne Williams, Queen Borough Public Library, Jamaica, NY
