Many of North America's most beloved regions are artfully celebrated in these board books designed to soothe children before bedtime while instilling an early appreciation for the continent's natural and cultural wonders. Each book stars a multicultural group of people visiting the featured area's attractions, and rhythmic language guides children through the passage of both a single day and the four seasons while saluting the iconic aspects of each place. From jazz musicians and the Mississippi River to Mardi Gras festivities and the French Quarter, this charming board book explores many fun and exciting aspects of the Crescent City.
