Customer Reviews

Fantastic book

We purchased this prior to moving to the Chicago area in order to prep our toddler for the move. It's a gorgeous book with excellent illustrations and lots of wonderful information about the city. Highly recommended for anyone with a connection to the city - particularly those with kids!

A Terrific Journey

Of all the Journey ABC books the one to Chicago has been the best. After reading the book one can make a list of where he or she would like to go and the sights to see in Chicago. The book is beautifully illustrated with a little WALDO theme inserted. Children and adults will enjoy finding a cardinal on every page.I recommend the book to 7 and older especially to those who like to travel.
