A Big Day in the City A personalized picture book

A peek inside

Maya's whole world fit in seventeen boxes. Seventeen! She counted them twice. The big truck huffed and puffed all the way to the house with the green door and the wobbly gate. "Will there be anywhere to play?" she whispered, holding Bear tight. Mom smiled. "There's a whole forest — Rock Creek — and it's ours to explore."

Sample text and illustration — an example of the style. Every book is written and drawn for your child's real moment and neighborhood.
