A series debut, Baby to Brooklyn humorously compares the world ofbabies to that of the hip Brooklyn lifestyle. From baby bowls to Brooklyn Bowl, from toy trains to the G train, this pictographic board book takes cues from the famous landmarks and hipster iconography for which the borough is known. Through vibrant and playful graphics,baby talk meets street slang in this fun documentation of Brooklyn's millennial moment.
This series debut board book will have you smiling. I loved the humour, simplicity and just plain fun on every spread. The book highlights objects in a baby's world... then fastforwards... and compares them to the world of a savvy adult world in Brooklyn.
Building Blocks to the Brooklyn Bridge, Kindergarten to a Biergarten, Onesie to a Romper, A.B.C. to J.M.Z. and Dominoes to Domino Sugar Factory (just to name a few), will give you an idea of the delightful vibe the author so giftedly captures.
The vibrant playful graphics are a perfect marriage of baby babble and street slang. It is very, very kid-friendly and I highly recommend it. It is guaranteed to make you happy.
