A board-book introduction to Boston

Boston’s landmarks and local details provide the subject matter for this illustrated board book, including the USS Constitution and the Make Way for Ducklings sculpture in the Public Garden. Simple phrasing and bold illustrations present the city in a format designed for very young children to explore alongside caregivers. The description also notes hidden shapes, animals, and other details to spot, with activity ideas at the back extending the shared-book experience. Its local focus makes Boston itself the organizing thread, combining familiar places with early opportunities to look, point, and talk together.
