"Paints a vibrant, tangible, and inviting world for preschool-aged readers." — Publishers Weekly

Broom, vroom, beep! Maisy and Charley are in the city, and there are many things to get used to — noisy traffic, enormous buildings, and sidewalks so crowded they have to walk very slowly. Riding the escalator and elevator — and hanging on tight in the subway — are almost as much fun as exploring the giant toy store and eating pizza in a café. Even the playground is busy in the city!
Cousins's familiarly sturdy gouache scenes, rendered in bright primary colors, pair with simple sentences in a playful font.…As ever, Cousins paints a vibrant, tangible, and inviting world for preschool-aged readers.
