The Little Skyscraper

32 pp. | Price Stern | October, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-8431-7677-6 $$12.99
(4) K-3 In a saccharine tale that echoes Virginia Lee Burton's The Little House, the once-proud art-deco-style Little Skyscraper is slowly dwarfed by newer, bigger buildings until it is eventually preserved as a historic landmark. The illustrations, cartoonlike and naive, evoke a feeling of the fifties and sixties with their varied pastel palette.
Reviewer: CHristine Sarrazin
