Lights On Broadway

THIS is a fabulous book for anyone like that in your life:

by Harriet Ziefert and Brian Stokes Mitchell
It's big and bold and every page is bright and fun and filled with quotes and statistics and definitions- you could spend hours reading this book with your child and not get bored.
The genius of it is the alphabet-book framework- younger children can enjoy the book on a simpler level, following the ABC's and understanding the basic definitions (and being entertained by the dynamic layout and zany illustrations), while older children will find the quotes and more in-depth material fascinating.
What I really love about this book is its gender-neutrality. They could have gone girly with this in the hopes of reaching the Fancy Nancy audience, but they didn't. Both girls AND boys will easily find a lot to enjoy here. And so will the parents!
