With intricate, cut-paper illustrations and one very plucky character, NYC children can join in on a city adventure in the pastel pages of a picture book. —
Lindsay Ward‘s When Blue Met Egg is a fitting and friendly read for children ages 3 and up. In it, little ones will follow the story of Blue the bird on a Manhattan odyssey through the changing seasons, all the while recognizing our local landmarks like the Central Park Boathouse, the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, street vendors, Columbus Circle and more.
Without giving away too much, the tale features a friendship that will make your kids giggle from the start–and have you all hugging closely by the very end! Best of all, the book ends with a hopeful (and darling) look towards spring!
Last minute Easter gifts, anyone?
