NEW YORK CITY ADVENTURES
By Donna Vann
Christian Focus. 93 pages. £4.99
ISBN 978-1-84550-546-2

This children’s book about New York interweaves information, both historical and current, about New York with simple teaching on the Christian life.

So, for example, the chapter about the role of New York in the War for Independence from Britain speaks of a teacher called Nathan Hale who gave his life for his country and then makes the obvious connection with ‘another young teacher’ whose death was also on behalf of others. The gospel is clearly presented in a way that children would be able to read, possibly with a little help, and understand. Each chapter also includes suggestions of things to see and do in New York.
