Cityblock explores city life in an exciting and unique way, from up in a high-rise building to down in the subway. Divided into three sections—things that go, things to see and things to eat—it features 24 different aspects of city living. As with the other acclaimed books in the series, die-cut icons hint at the larger context on the next spread. Each section opens with a full city scene but gradually focuses in on the small, unique neighbourhoods that make the city large and grand. This clever book will attract young readers living in a metropolis as well as in the countryside with urban life that pops off each page.
**STARRED REVIEW**
"A big urban adventure in a small package."
Children in urban settings will recognize this city's feel, while suburban or rural children will be equally happy to join in the adventure. * Kirkus *
**STARRED REVIEW**
