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.

Good book for young children,
By
This review is from: Good Night New York City (Good Night Our World series) (Board book)
The book is interesting and my 21-month-old daughter loves looking at it. I am sure she doesn't quite get what New York city means yet, but it does show sights that are familiar to her. The text is minimal and pretty basic, so I wouldn't think this is a book for kids over 5. It starts the day with a visit to the Statue of Liberty, then to the UN with children playing in front of it, then police on horseback and a firetruck, then there is a page with NYC skyline and the Empire State Building up front, then Central Park, after that is the Bronx Zoo, the Public Library, a hot dog stand, musicals, and finally, everyone goes to bed in what looks like the Upper West Side with brownstone buildings.

This review is from: Good Night New York City (Good Night Our World series) (Board book)
This book provides great pictures and a fun way to share a special city with my daughter. Some of the text is a bit silly, but overall I have enjoyed this book along with several others in the series.
