"Nana, aren't you afraid in the city? It is busy, loud and filled with scary things."A little boy goes to stay with his grandmother, but is afraid of the city. But Nana knits him a cape that helps him to be brave as they go out and explore. The city is still busy and loud, but the illustrations change to make those words less threatening. And with the cape and Nana, the city changes from scary to extraordinary. A nana does not belong in a city! Or so says the young boy in this book who visits his nana there. It is loud and noisy and scary--no place for a nana! But Nana loves the city. She makes the boy a special cape to make him feel brave so they can go explore the city. The boy then sees all the wonderful and fantastical and glorious things in the city. Then he knows the city is the perfect place for a nana.Good for preschool storytimes.
What a cool book! Love this Nana and the love for the city.
