Kids’ Corner: Cities by Manon Bucciarelli

#Cities #NetGalley

The cover of this book drew me right in. The illustrations offer a fun opportunity to name the city represented by each symbol.

For each featured city, there are illustrations and comments on them. For example, kids will see the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Chrysler Building and more. Some of the other cities included are Rio, Paris, Moscow and Tokyo, among others.

I am not sure how kids will receive this book. The illustrations are well done and the text offers some facts. However, this title seems more like a jumping off point. If a child is interested in a particular place, I think that they may then want to look for additional resources.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Cider Mill Press -Applesauce Press for this title. All thoughts are my own.

I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
