Customer Reviews

I LOVE this book!

When I was a child we use to go to visit my dad in NY. Us kids loved Times Square...the tacky souvenirs and dollar store. This book reminds me of those great memories. The illustrator is wonderful...I love all his books.

A Great Book for Kids

This is a great book for kids with beautiful imagery of New York. It also tells an important story of paying attention to one's surroundings. I would reccommend for kids of all ages.
