Summary: Pigeon Love in San Francisco
Review: No child growing up in the SF Bay Area should be deprived of this classic tale of love in the nation's most romantic city. Read it aloud to ages 3 to 6.Sid and Midge are pigeons who eat the bread crumbs from Blum's Bakery (now the Macy's Union Square entrance ...ugh) and enjoy the city together, particularly Union Square. Kids can really relate to Sid's plight on a horribly stormy day, when he is separated from his lovely Midge. They are happily reunited, and the sun shines just as beautifully as every San Franciscan knows it can. Illustrated in quite colorful pencils, all in 50's fashions (a time when no San Franciscan woman went outside without hat and gloves) with charming views of the city that kids will joyfully recognize. A classic! This would make a treasured posession for that special San Francisco child!
