Christmastime in New York City

A tribute to the magic of Manhattan during the holiday season from a beloved cover illustrator for The New Yorker. Back in print for the first time in more than twenty years, Christmastime in New York City takes readers on a tour of the Big Apple all decked out for the holiday season. Roxie Munro’s endearing, retro style presents panoramic drawings of various sights in New York City during the Christmas season, including the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, store windows filled with toys and holiday decorations, the big tree in Rockefeller Center, and the New Year’s Eve celebration in Times Square. In this perfect gift volume, which was named to the New York Times Best Children’s Books List in 1987, readers are invited on a tour of the city during the most wonderful time of the year. This is a charming visual journey through the magical time of Christmas in New York City and a great picture book for people of all ages.

Roxie Munro is a fine artist and an award-winning author-illustrator of more than thirty-five books for children, including her acclaimed Inside-Outside series. Fourteen of her paintings have been published as covers of The New Yorker magazine.
