This deceptively simple tale will resonate with young children and their parents/caregivers. Beautifully illustrated with soft colors, this lovely picture book is for pre-readers and early readers. Its environmental message is a welcome addition to a small but growing cadre of books aimed at teaching children important lessons about becoming stewards of the world which they will inherit. The message comes through a story that is developmentally appropriate and engaging.

Arnold couldn't have found a better home, and this book so sweetly and whimsically details his adventure. The illustrations really capture the hustle and bustle of the city and the abundance of nature that can be found atop The Highline. Delightful read!
