Each of these books for children ages 3 to 8 offers a look into our world. Our big cities - New York, our animal world - Sleep in Nature, and our underground history throughout the world.
What an imagination trip of exploration these books provide. Whether sprawling across the floor reading and perusing these grand picture books or sitting alongside a parent or other older reader as they read and explore the tidbits of information that are readily gleaned from the pages.
The underground book has delightful pages with lift-the-flap to reveal more and engage the listener or reader.
I highly recommend these imprints from beloved Candlewick Press: Walker Books, Candlewick, and Big Picture Press.
