PS
Pete and his dog Larry (Larry Gets Lost in Seattle et al.) star in touristy alphabet books. Landmarks and cultural items from each city are paired with letters; some are nicely specific ("G is for Golden Gate Bridge"; "C is for Cubs"), others feel lazy (in both books "K is for kids"). With eye-catching retro-style graphics, the books may appeal to residents or visitors. Review covers these titles: Chicago ABC and San Francisco ABC.
