Sharon Gordon At Home in the City; illus by Anne Burns Images. 29 pp/ Marshall Cavendish Benchmark 2006 ISBN 0-7614-1960-8 $22.79 per/series (Primary)
Gordon takes a leap forward into a higher level of reading skill with the At Home series. Gordon’s previous publication, the Ready for School series calls for younger readers and addresses less complex concepts of life. The At Home series is an all-in-one tour of New York City, with highlights of monumental artifacts that are important to the community. With authentic photography Anne Burns definitely excites her readers and makes them feel as though they are actually visiting New York City. The pictures in motion have a unique way of producing the fast pace effect that New York City always brings. For a reader who has never had the chance to visit, this book is an excellent substitute.
