City Lullaby by Marilyn Singer, illustrated by Carll Cneut 2007
The sounds and colors of the city are deftly woven into this counting book. A bright pink stroller calmly glides across each chaotic scene from the city.
“Ice cream truck jing-a-linging. Nine annoying cell phones ringing. Nine phones ringing, ten horns beeping. In the stroller, Baby’s sleeping.”
Despite the over-stimulating sounds of the city, Baby snoozes on. There is an abundance of things to find and count on each page. This would make a great choice for storytimes.
Appropriate for ages 3-8

Hi, Jenni,
Thanks so much for your note and review. I'm delighted that you and your child enjoyed CITY LULLABY. I had fun writing it, and I liked the art so much that I bought one of the paintings (the one with the dogs).
I wish you much success and readership with your blog.
Best,
Marilyn Singer
