Picture Book Month: Cities

A little boy goes to visit his Nana in the city – but he finds it too crowded, too loud and no place his Nana should live. But, with Nana’s help and a new cape that makes him feel brave, the little boy comes to love the city with his Nana – there’s so much to see and do when he visits! I really loved that the Nana in this story didn’t dismiss the boy’s feelings, rather she helped him gain confidence with the help of a very special cape made especially for him!
