This highly creative book is set in Brooklyn, NY with the play time of neighborhood children. Multicultural, the images are not illustrations as I think of them, rather this is composed of photographs of children playing with the background of Mother Goose rhymes. Not all the rhymes seemed to match the photos.

I obtained it from my local library because it seemed very unique.

Tana Hoban and Nina Crews make some of my favorite children's books using photography. Just something about them perfectly captures Brooklyn (NYC) life from a child's point of view. I always feel like I'm 6 years-old when I gaze at the pictures in their books. I love seeing myself reflected back in a familiar scenairo.

Two boys play with this "Guy" toy everyday and one day they make him skydive. They lose him in a tree and the older one is devastated. He has to figure out how to get the toy out of the tree by himself. Him and his brother put their brains together and get the toy out of the tree.

This book seems to be based on a day in the life of the author with her children. I enjoyed the real photography in the book. Starts the book with the word "day"
and then contrasts words throughout the book until it ends with "Night", I didn't find this book engaging or interesting; however, I did like how it showed contrast and the words that contrast different things. This book is meant to read to children 2-4 years of age. I didn't find this book to be too enjoyable, but I did like the concept of the book.… (mais)
