    About this ebook

    What do Prospect Park, Coney Island, and Atlantic Avenue have in common? They are all located in Brooklyn, New York, a magical place where you can listen to jazz music, eat bagels and lox, and sit on the stoop of a brownstone and daydream. Children will recognize aspects of their own neighborhoods in this celebration of urban culture and community.

      There is a lot of information about Brooklyn under each letter. early grades would like the bright pictues but older grades would be able to use it for inspiration to write their own book about a place they lived, are living, or would like to live.

      Lively, colorful, vibrant tour of Brooklyn.
