Review

Counting book with big colorful simple illustrations and rhymes aplenty. Little girl traveling with her mom so though it is full of hustle and bustle it is also warm, fun and safe feeling for a child. Proper wording to describe commonly used words when talking subway lingo. For example turnstiles, straphangers, station, underground, etc.

Overall Book Score: very good
