Cycle City

Description

Little Etta Elephant always loves visiting her aunt. Aunt Ellen lives in a very special place. Welcome to Cycle City! Tonight's the Starlight Parade, but the invitations haven't been sent out yet! Luckily, Mayor Snail is on the job. And maybe Etta can lend a hand? Detail-rich and thoroughly delightful, Cycle City takes readers on a seek-and-find tour of an irresistibly charming town, where everyone-from owls on bookmobiles to pigs on pedicabs-is on wheels!

Alison Farrell has a BA in Painting from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design and an MSE in Art Education from the College of Saint Rose. Her favourite food group is sauerkraut, and she regularly rides a unicycle and bakfiets-style cargo bike. In other words, you won't be surprised to learn she lives in Portland, Oregon. This is her first book.

"This colourful, absorbing hardback is full of tiny but witty intimate scenes of the animal residents of Cycle City." BookTrust "A captivating search-and-find for slightly younger readers: this one has a clear storyline and a plethora of speech bubbles and is populated by a vast array of anthropomorphic animals." Red Reading Hub "This fascinating book will enthrall children for hours - there's so much to spot and enjoy. Have you ever seen so many different bicycles?" Parents in Touch
