Little Cities: Austin by D. K. Publishing - OPTIONAL

Little Cities: Austin by D. K. Publishing, 18 pages. PICTURE BOOK, NON-FICTION. DK Publishing, 2020. $10.

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - OPTIONAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

What do you know about Austin, Texas? Learn where you can see all of Austin from one building, where to find art displayed, where over a million bats live in the city, and more!

Acting as a mini travel book for kids, this book is exciting by giving fun facts (like finding bats) about a city in the same country as most of its audience. I like that it encourages exploration and curiosity with both the pictures and descriptions. Once you’ve read one of the “Little Cities” books, though, it feels like you’ve read them all; I didn’t like this one as much as I enjoyed reading my first of these books.
