Summary: A Big Caramel Kiss for the Big Apple
Review: Bestselling travel author Laurie Bain Wilson tempts families everywhere with delicious fun in her newest book. New York City with Kids is a treat from the word go. Wilson has road-tested all of the Big Apple sites with her son Alex, and offers an encyclopedic - and easy-to-read - guide to family-friendly hotels (even those that welcome Fido), restaurants, sights and activities in all of New York's boroughs. For example, Alex, a hot-fudge-sundae connoisseur, raves about Dylan's Candy Bar (p. 96). On a budget? Wilson lists museums with a "pay as you wish" policy (p. 58), so you can enjoy all of the bling without the ka-ching. She recommends the United Nations Gift Shop for terrific souvenirs (p.89) and the New York Gotham Baseball Club for reenactments of games as they were played in 1864 (p. 102). Filled with insider tips, perfect picks for the pint-sized, and great ideas galore, New York City with Kids is a home run!
