Nelly Takes New York: A Little Girl's Adventures in the Big Apple

By Marya Myers, Allison Pataki, Kristi Valiant

Book Overview

The Big Apple may be hiding in the place you least expect it in this spunky introduction to the best parts of New York.

Nelly lives in New York, the greatest city in the world.

Every morning, she wakes up to the rumble of the subways and the honking of cars.
Every morning, she can smell the food cart downstairs and hear the rat-a-tat-tat of the street musicians outside.
Every morning, she goes outside to be in the city she knows like the back of her hand--or does she?

One morning, Nelly and her dog Bagel decide to find out what New York is really about--or more specifically, why a city that has nothing to do with apples is the Biggest Apple of them all. Could there really be a giant apple somewhere in New York? And where is it hiding?
