Larry Gets Lost in New York City
Larry Gets Lost in New York City
The newest tale in the Larry Gets Lost series begins in a quintessentially NYC location: the backseat of a Yellow cab. Follow Larry as he ping-pongs around the city, hitting all five boroughs in a day, and the places and things that make New York City what it is: hot dogs, Times Square, Wall Street, Radio City Music Hall, Coney Island, Madison Square Garden, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Greenwich Village, and Central Park, among others. Along the way he loses Pete and his family in the city’s famous subway system. Finally after an exhausting day of adventures, Larry is reunited with his family at the top of the Empire State Building. They sail away on the Staten Island Ferry, waving goodbye to the Statue of Liberty. Filled with color

A dog’s eye view of New York City,
Larry, a geographically challenged pup, has gotten lost in cities such as Seattle, Chicago, and San Francisco. You’d think his owners would know by now to put him on a leash, but lucky for us, they don’t! On a trip to the Big Apple, the hapless pooch hops off a subway when he spies a slice of discarded pizza. Quicker than you can say ‘fuggetaboudit’ he’s on his own, searching for his family at the various landmarks of New York City. Part travelogue, part adventure, this beautifully illustrated book may be aimed at children (my seven-year-old goddaughter loves it) but adults will appreciated the well-researched information given about the many points of interest of this fascinating city.

|Love This Book,
What a wonderful book!!! If you are planning a trip to NYC or want to teach someone about it, this is the perfect resource! All of THE places to see and go to are highlighted along with a cute story about a boy and his dog. The author has similar books for a few other cities. I hope he continues to write more- I’ll certainly buy them!
