Review:

New York has always been known as the city that never sleeps. Perhaps if you were to walk its busy streets from day to night you may view it differently, a kind of comparison and contrast. The city will look different and even some of the people may be dressed or act a little different. The daytime skyline and nighttime skyline will absolutely look different. In this engaging read young readers will be surprised at what they will find on these pages.

At night, the Empire State building may look like a rocket in flight.  At night the Guggenheim Museum may look like a spaceship with an alien standing in front of it. Large trees in Central Park may look like a giant gorilla at night. How is this possible? Special pages inside representing New York at night will allow kids to use their imaginations. Easy to read sentences and illustrations in basic white, red and turquoise help readers see the story presented. Parents and teachers can share this as a tool to discuss the many amazing sites in the city that never sleeps.
