A Walk in New York

Hello! This is me. 

And that's my dad! 

We've just arrived in Manhattan - the busiest part of New York City! 

Dad wants to show me around.

This platform's underground. 
We walk along a ramp and came up onto group level. 

"Welcome to GRAND CENTRAL," in the world!"



It's time to open my child's eyes to see a bigger world, so we pick up more books with theme around the world. 

This time - an enormous city, a perfect place for a boy and his dad to spend the day. A Walk In New York takes you to the busiest part of New York City, The Grand Central - the largest train station in the world.

The New York Public Library which Amaris is familiar with the two lions called Patience and Fortitude guarding the books inside.

Then we go up to the Empire State Building with a hundred and two floors that the New Yorkers are proud of - it was built in just 410 days!

Now our feet are really tired, so we find a park - Union Square to rest in.

At sunset, we go to the pier where we see the Statue of Liberty with her seven rays turning to gold.

My girl said she will appreciate more of this book when she is six and a half. And by that time, I may take her to get a taste of New York!

Dedicated to my beautiful friend in a city that never sleeps.

Lost Little Elephant

Little Elephant lives on the Cape of Good Hope in Africa.

Even though he is called 'Little', he is really very big with huge, flappy ears, just like all African elephants.

One day, Little Elephant received a letter from his Indian cousin, Aziz ...

That very day, Little Elephant set out on his long, long journey to India ...

I picked up this book from the library last week and thought it would be good to help my five years old learning about geography in an entertaining and colorful way.

The illustrations on every page is fantastic! My girl described this book as the It's a Small World ride at Disneyland where you can adventure through famous cities, amazing monuments and natural wonders around the world.

We have decided to add this book to our collections, so that we can adventure through  
Table Mountain in South Africa 
The Great Pyramids in Egypt 
Vatican City in Rome 
The Sagrada Familia Cathedral in Barcelona 
The Eiffel Tower in Paris
Big Ben in London
Alluitsup Paa in Greenland
CN Tower in Toronto
Statue of Liberty in New York
Angel Falls in Venezuela
Machu Piccu in Peru
City of Angels in Thailand 
and our last stop,  
Delhi where Little Elephant finally met his cousin.

Highly recommend this book to all little adventurers!
