City Lullaby by Marilyn Singer. Clarion, 2007. PICTURE BOOK.
EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
This rhyming book presents typical city sounds counting down from 10. Sirens howl, air brakes hiss, cell phones ring, dogs bark and manhole covers rattle, but nothing disturbs baby who is sleeping soundly to the tune of this city lullaby. Children will enjoy the colorful illustrations and the repetitive patterns in this book. Opposite each page featuring illustrations of the source of a city noise, is an illustration of baby's face with eyes shut. Children will be surprised when in the end, it's the chirp of a tiny bird that wakes baby up.
