Review:

"Far more resplendent trees grace the elegant pages of Roxie Munro's Christmastime in New York City, a collection of wintry urban tableaux first published in 1994. Ideal for families that visit Manhattan near Christmas (and for those who don't but wish they could), the delicately colored, fine-line drawings yield delectable glimpses of, among other scenes, skaters on the rink at Rockefeller Plaza, performers in Radio City Music Hall and the soaring arches of St. Thomas Church." -Wall Street Journal
"Christmas in New York, whimsically illustrated. Roxie Munro...With a delicate hand, she draws incredibly detailed, magnetic scenes of cityscapes, deserts, and amusement parks filled with people, animals, and more. Christmastime in New York City, back in print for the first time in more than two decades, invites readers of all ages to delight in the Big Apple's iconic buildings and vistas -- all dressed up for the holidays. From skaters sweeping across Rockefeller Center's ice rink to people pressing their faces against department store windows, Munro's illustrations express the color and excitement that can surprise even the city that never sleeps." -TheWeek.com
