'This Is Hong Kong' was one of Sasek's three favourite books, along with 'This Is Venice' and 'This Is Edinburgh', because it was such an unusual book to do. The fun he had writing it shows in the illustrations.
"This is Hong Kong is resplendent with the little things that make Hong Kong one of the most magnificent cities in the world. This is Hong Kong will feed the soul of every travel-loving adult and child, the world over." ~kids-bookreview.com
