Senses in the City

See the tall buildings. Hear a train speeding by. Smell the nuts roasting at a street stand. Touch hands to cross the street. Taste a cookie from a neighborhood bakery. The city stimulates all of our five senses in exciting ways. This book is a wonderful discussion and activity starter for children who live in or visit the city, while at the same time it is ideal for classroom use in studying the five senses. The topic is an excellent foil for Rotners talent for capturing children at play.
