Description: We've got pizza rats and bodega cats. We'll grab a slice or some bagel and schmear, but don't even think about calling a "taxi." Fuhgeddaboudit! A true New Yorker knows it's a "cab"!
Yerrr! Introducing 100 First Words for Little New Yorkers, a state primer for kids learning their first words! Forget apple and dog. Little New Yorkers are ready to move from ABC to MTA and other New York-specific words like borough, hero, and egg cream (if you know, you know). Packed with hilarious illustrations and 100 words every NYC-dwelling baby should know (before any others, of course), 100 First Words for Little New Yorkers is the perfect board book for families who call the City home.Brief description: Patrick Gray is an illustrator based out of Montreal, Canada, who studied at the Ontario College of Art & Design. His lifelong challenges are to make art that's just as complicated as it needs to be and to know precisely when to stop working on a drawing: skills that (not-at-all maddeningly) his one-year-old daughter has already mastered.
