    These books are great, went to San Francisco and bought this for my twins, and since we live in the midwest we are close to Chicago, these books are cute and tell alot about the landmarks, more than most tourist books we have found actually, so good story, and good info, looking at more of these, not to mention a great way for your child to remember special places.

    I was happy to give this book to my 4yo nephew for his birthday. I'm his aunt who lives in Chicago, so I hope he will learn some landmarks from the city from the book, and then we can point them out in real life someday when his family comes to visit me. To accompany this gift, I also purchased a model CTA train car for the train line that I take to work. They have all model train cars for every line on the CTA's merch website (which, btw, is a thing that exists). Anyway, this is a cute book. I think he liked it.

    We bought this book for my 5-year-old nephew and 3-year-old niece, who will make their first visit to in Chicago just before Christmas (with their parents). Not only will the weather be completely different from what they're used to in Tucson, AZ, but so will the big city feel. We sent it to them hoping that it would help them get excited for their upcoming trip and to help them enjoy the many tourist sites we plan to visit while they're here, and their reaction has been incredible. My brother tells me that he has to read the book to them at least once a day, and they're making lists of what they most want to see when they get here. When my nephew was "Star of the Week" in kindergarten, he even picked "Larry Gets Lost in Chicago" as his favorite book to share with the class!

    This is just the cutest book, and it is such a neat way to show children what is in a particular city. I sent a copy to my niece and nephew in Montana, so they will get excited to visit me in Chicago. The art style is also very interesting and beautiful. I only had one complaint: When Larry and Pete get separated, one goes north and the other goes south. One visits the Hancock Building while the other is at the Sears/Willis Tower. Geographically, they should have been switched. That's nitpicking, I know, but I couldn't help but notice.

    If you love the city, check out this book. It has a good story line and is interesting in the way that the author slips the north and south side in the story. Larry travels to quite a few important Chicago destinations and my class loved the story. After we read it to the class, I had to buy a copy for my nephews too. I would absolutely recommend. Especially for anyone from Chicago that wants to share the city with the kids!

    Being born and raised in Chicago, I couldn't wait for this book to come in. It didn't great job at portraying this beautiful city and I can't wait for my son to get older so I can read him all about the great city his mommy was raised in. I plan to buy the Boston version as that has ties to my husband.
