"I just stumbled across this book and the others in this series by Miroslav Sasek. With a joyous simplicity, he welcomes you to New York. But this is just one of 4 books where he introduces cities of the world (Paris, Rome, New York and London) are represented all in a lush but transparent water color pallet. The paper stock is wonderful, the colors and illustrations bright but with a retro feel. I had to look up whether this was a newly published book or one from some time ago. I think that's a good test for a book if it stands up to our contemporary sensibilities. For anyone taking a little one on a trip this would be the perfect book to give them a feel for New York. The history of NY is introduced very playfully and the pages are just alive with New York and some of it's icons. A BIG Four Star."
"I love all of these books so much that I'm starting a collection. I think my parents bought me this book when we lived briefly in New York City when I was little."
