Engagingly described and sumptuously illustrated with paintings full of details to pore over again and again, the city's pleasure almost burst the page. Readers are introduced to the thrill of riding your own special horse on Central Park's colourful carousel, the magic of seeing the Fourth of July fireworks explode over the skyline and much, much more. Oversized fold-out pages of the Empire State Building, the dinosaurs at the museum of Natural History, the Chrysler building and Rockefeller Centre at Christmas add to the fun, while a map in the front and fun facts in the back make a helpful guide. With paintings by a premier American folk artist, this is a visual celebration of one of the world's most fabled cities, sure to be treasured by young and old.
