Edition DescriptionAnniversary

SynopsisFirst published to critical raves and spectacular sales ten years ago, this extraordinary celebration of New York City is now revised and expanded in a bigger format, with over 75% brand-new or updated paintings, including Radio City Music Hall, Grand Central Station, Rockefeller Center, and the New York Public Library. With a young girl guiding them to all her favorite places, readers are treated to a stunning, kid's-eye view of New York City. Full of details to pore over again and again, these paintings almost burst off the page. Seven oversized fold-out pages featuring the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, the dinosaurs at the Museum of Natural History, and Rockefeller Center at Christmastime add to the fun, while a map in the front and fun facts in the back make this a helpful guidebook as well. A free greeting card is included with the holiday edition. My New York is a stunning visual celebration of one of the world's most fabled cities and is sure to be treasured by New Yorkers and non-New Yorkers, and young and old alike., A young New Yorker writes to her friend from the Midwest to tell about the things they will see in the city when Martin comes to visit her.
