It can be a little scary to be small in a big city, but this child has some good advice for a very special friend in need.

Winner of the Ezra Jack Keats Award for Writer
A New York Times/New York Public Library Best Illustrated Book of the Year
An ALA Notable Children's Book
A Capitol Choices Noteworthy Title

It can be a little scary to be small in a big city, but it helps to know you're not alone.

When you're small in the city, people don't see you, and loud sounds can scare you, and knowing what to do is sometimes hard. But this little kid knows what it's like, and knows the neighborhood. And a little friendly advice can go a long way.

Alleys can be good shortcuts, but some are too dark.

Or, there are lots of good hiding places in the city, like under a mulberry bush or up a walnut tree.

And, if the city gets to be too much, you're always welcome home, where it's safe and quiet.

In the first book that he has both written and illustrated, award-winning artist Sydney Smith spins a quiet, contemplative tale about seeing a big world through little eyes.

Love love love!!
I LOVE this lotion. It's extremely lightweight, doesn't have a strong odor, and it's actually moisturizing! It's light enough to where I use it on my face as well and it doesn't feel greasy at all. No skin irritation or anything and I have sensitive skin. HIGHLY recommend.

Smoother skin in no time
I’ve been using it daily for a couple of weeks, and I really have noticed that my skin tone is more even. I had some dry patches and areas darkened by the sun, and they look much better now. It’s lightweight, but it provides good hydration all day long. For the price, I feel it’s well worth it.

Did not fade my dark spots.
This is an amazing moisturizer. I love how light and creamy it is. It goes on and absorbs well with a light fragrance. Only 4 stars because it did nothing at all for dark spots. While really sad about that I would buy again as I like it that much.

A bit thinner than expected
This body cream feels nice on the skin and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. It is a little thinner than I expected for a cream, but it still leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized. The scent is light and pleasant too.

Lightweight daily moisturizer for the softest skin (bonus: incredible subtle scent)
Already repurchased, will absolutely continue to be a staple in my routine. Smells amazing, lightweight texture that easily absorbs into my skin, and leaves my skin feeling so soft even a full 24+ hours later. Incredible price for the amount and quality of product. Dove you did your big one with this one.
