This sweet book is such a charming tribute to Western Springs. With the beautiful illustrations it is a lovely way for a child to recognize or learn about locations in their own hometown. I’m happy to see there will be other towns commemorated in this series. Perfect gift for a child or grandchild!
Ha! Just heard about this new children’s book about our hometown, and now our 18 month old is obsessed! It’s the perfect bedtime length, and the gorgeous illustrations of the Western Springs library, tower, park, train station, markets, and bakery- places we visit all the time - keep her flipping pages to see what’s next. Hoping for a cartoon or movie adaptation next!
