We loved this one in the whole wide universe and all the seasons。

This book was different because it was all about New York but never really stated that。 I think it would be a good book to read to children who probably haven't experienced some place other than the town they live in。 It talks about all the different things Maisy and her friends did in the city。 It was cool because they talked about the busy streets， the subway and how it was night time but the city was still lit up pretty well。 This book was different because it was all about New York but never really stated that。 I think it would be a good book to read to children who probably haven't experienced some place other than the town they live in。 It talks about all the different things Maisy and her friends did in the city。 It was cool because they talked about the busy streets， the subway and how it was night time but the city was still lit up pretty well。 。。。more

This was a perfect book for now mummy said as we are just about to move from a tiny town to a big city。 The pictures were great and I enjoyed finding different things on them and talking about them with mummy。 A lovely simple story and Maisy gives Dotty a present at the end which mummy said is a very nice thing to do to say thank you to someone。（2yrs 5 mths）

We enjoy all the Maisy books and this one is good too。 My three star review comes because the pictures in this one are so， so busy。 I guess though this is an accurate presentation of a big city。

Frickin' Maisy。It's all so *nice*Ah well， the kids seem to like it。 I feel like it's a cult I haven't been let in on。 Frickin' Maisy。It's all so *nice*Ah well， the kids seem to like it。 I feel like it's a cult I haven't been let in on。 。。。more

This was a nightly read for a couple of weeks for Natalie。 We enjoyed pretending to eat the food and talking about our favorite toys。 A great book for Maisy fans， but also for some background knowledge before a trip to the city or a story unit on the city。
