This is Washington, D.C.: A Children's Classic

This is Washington, D.C.: A Children's Classic

Continuing the success of the runaway best sellers This is New York and This is London comes the latest title from M. Sasekâ‚¬s beloved and nostalgic childrenâ‚¬s travel series. Sasekâ‚¬s This is Washington, D.C. is a facsimile edition of his original book, which was first published in 1969. The brilliant illustrations have been meticulously preserved, with the facts updated for the twenty-first century. The charming illustrations, coupled with Sasekâ‚¬s playful narrative, makes for a perfect souvenir that will delight children and parents alike. Super-tourist Sasek paints Washington red, white, and blue as he tours the nationâ‚¬s capital. Stops include the Washington Monument (which commands a view of all the Federal buildings and most of the museums, monuments, and memorials), the White House (whose lawn is a grassy launching pad for the Presidentâ‚¬s helicopter), and the Smithsonianâ‚¬s National Zoological Park, the last residence of the worldâ‚¬s most famous ursine, Smokey the Bear! With bright pictures and snappy commentary, Sasek wittily captures all the fascinating things to do and see in a city of green parks, wide avenues, and classic white porticoes. Designed by a Frenchman and renowned for its cherry blossoms, This is Washington, D.C.!
