"For native Brooklynite Roz Chast, adjusting to life in the suburbs (where people own trees!?) was surreal. But she recognized that for her kids, the reverse was true. On trips into town, they would marvel at the strange world of Manhattan: its gum-wad-dotted sidewalks, honey-combed streets, and 'those West Side Story-things' (fire escapes). Their wonder inspired 'Going into Town,' part playful guide, part New York stories, and part love letter to the city, told through Chast's laugh-out-loud, touching, and true cartoons"--Amazon.com.

This book would have been the perfect book for me to take along last year to BookExpo in New York City. It is the best, most laid-back, most useful intro to New York that I've seen. It covers everything from how to get around, to what to see and where to go. And anyone from a grownup to a kid would enjoy it.
