Pressezitat
"Bustling Cities of the World is an oversized book that celebrates the world's major and busiest cities, from Cairo to London and Sydney to Vancouver. Introductions to each capture a sense of place and environment ("It's raining again-no surprise to Londoners. Nobody leaves home without a hat, cap, or umbrella-just look at Sherlock Holmes, a palace guard, even the Queen!"). Each city receives a two-page spread packed with illustrations of its major attributes, from foods and historical buildings to local districts, bridges, markets, and more. The result is a lively leisure read that holds educational attraction, as well." -Midwest Book Review"The illustrations are charmingly rendered and I like that each city's illustrations have a unifying color. This makes the page full oftiny illustrations feel cohesive. I feel like this would be a good book to read with younger kids, although older kids would probably appreciate theillustrations as well." -NetGalley-Reviewer

"A fun illustrated description of cities around the world. The illustrations are cute, and each city has a simple, short description written about it." -NetGalley-Bookseller
"It would be fun to encourage kids to make their own gallery of images that define their home city or state."
