City Baby
CCBC Review:
“This is your city, little one.” Textured collage illustrations show an Asian mother and her baby out and about in a busy city. The baby rides in a stroller most of the time as the pair visits a park, a coffee shop, and a festival, taking their time along the way so the baby can see pigeons, blow bubbles, and look at their own reflection in a shop window. A short sentence on each page spread describes the action, accompanied by distinctive illustrations that capture all the busy detail of a vibrant city without seeming busy themselves. ©2022 Cooperative Children’s Book Center
