This lively, colorful ABC book brings Brooklyn to life and will make any reader want to spend part of their time in NYC exploring its neighborhoods. Each page has a bunch of different words to represent each letter and some representations will be well-known to those of us not from Brooklyn (Brooklyn Bridge, Coney Island, Prospect Park) and some will only be known to locals (DUMBO - Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass, Kings County Kick Ball, Mermaid Parade) which makes this book all the more appealing to everyone, visitors and locals alike. I know I personally want to plan a trip to NYC right now just so I can explore Brooklyn more than I did on my last trip.

Fine homage to Brooklyn, the illustrations are packed. Some great classroom connections here for social studies to make your own ABC for your area.
