Bustling Cities of the World Reviews

The illustrations are charmingly rendered and I like that each city's illustrations have a unifying color. This makes the page full of tiny illustrations feel cohesive. I feel like this would be a good book to read with younger kids, although older kids would probably appreciate the illustrations as well. -NetGalley-Reviewer

There is so much to discover in this book covering some of the largest and best-known cities around the globe. The illustration style is fresh and vibrant and captures the attention quickly. It has a very travel sketchbook feel to it which I absolutely loved. -NetGalley-Educator

This is a lovely book; the illustrations are beautiful and they will entice any family to pick it up and read it to and with their children. I like the very full pages, almost like a seek and find book, they seem to bustle just like the title of the book! -NetGalley-Librarian

A fun illustrated description of cities around the world. The illustrations are cute, and each city has a simple, short description written about it. -NetGalley-Bookseller

It would be fun to encourage kids to make their own gallery of images that define their home city or state. -Flying Off My Bookshelf

The result is a lively leisure read that holds educational attraction, as well. -Donovan's Literary Services

The illustrations in the book are to die for! Each two-page spread features dozens of illustrations, ranging from architecture to food to famous residents. Kids will have fun searching through all the small details. -SmeeWHPL, Librarian
