Many of North America’s most beloved regions are artfully celebrated in these boardbooks designed to soothe children before bedtime while instilling an early appreciation for the continent’s natural and cultural wonders. Each book stars a multicultural group of people visiting the featured area’s attractions—such as the Rocky Mountains in Denver, the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta, Lake Ontario in Toronto, and volcanoes in Hawaii. Rhythmic language guides children through the passage of both a single day and the four seasons while saluting the iconic aspects of each place.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great SF story- it's like a mini travel guide!,
By
This review is from: Good Night San Francisco (Good Night Our World series) (Board book)
This is an engaging, yet simple board book that shows different scenes in the city throughout the day, starting with Good morning (sea lions, GG Bridge, Fisherman's Wharf, etc.) and moves onto Good Afternoon, Hello, Good Evening, and Good Night to some other scenes (kites, Cliff House, Seal Rocks, Golden Gate Park, children playing at the beach, submarine, historic ships, fishing boats, Palace of Fine Arts, Coit Tower, Pacific Ocean, city lights, and more). My kids (and 2 and 4) enjoy seeing the sites in the book of this city they know and love. The story asks questions through out that always prompt a response from my kids. When the book says good evening to "The Thinker" it asks, "What are you thinking about?" or at the Exploratorium, it asks, "Don't you love to discover how things work?" The books highlights some of the more popular attractions, but also includes lesser known attractions such as the Conservatory of Flowers, Stow Lake, Exploratorium, Aquarium and more. After many years of living in the city, I have never gone to many of those places, but this book is a great reminder of all the fun places to check out in the city with my kids.

This review is from: Good Night San Francisco (Good Night Our World series) (Board book)
We love this book about our city. My daughter especially loves the page on the Exploratorium. It makes a great gift for out-of-town friends with kids.

This review is from: Good Night San Francisco (Good Night Our World series) (Board book)
This delightful little book is an excellent teaching tool for introducing young readers to the wonderful city of San Francisco, the Gem of the West Coast. Readers get to meet and greet sea lions, Fisherman's Wharf, Golden Gate Park and other delightful sites in the Golden City.An ideal companion book is Good Night Boston (Good Night Our World series) because it is about the Gem of the East Coast and this one is about the Gem of the West Coast.
