Up, up, up! The buildings touch the sky. Come to New York with Dino and Benny!
Best friends Dino, a curious green dinosaur, and Benny, a calm brown bear, step out into a city that never stops moving. Yellow taxis honk past. They ride the subway, look up at the stars on a train station ceiling, and sail out on the ferry to meet the Statue of Liberty, whose crown has seven points and who came all the way from France. They walk the long ropes and tall towers of the Brooklyn Bridge, and fold a big slice of pizza the way New Yorkers do.
The day keeps climbing. A rowboat on the lake, a spinning carousel, and a storybook statue to climb. At the museum Dino waves at a dinosaur skeleton and calls it cousin, while a great blue whale floats overhead. There are stone lions at the library, a warm soft pretzel, and an elevator that races up 102 floors until the whole city looks small. Then the lights blink on, a drummer taps out a beat, and warm dumplings in Chinatown end a day that leaves them with tired feet and happy hearts.
Written at an early-reader level with short, playful sentences, A New York Adventure is made for reading aloud and reading together. Like every book in The Adventures of Dino and Benny, it is a gentle, villain-free story where two friends explore the world as equals, kindness leads the way, and real places come to life on every page.
Perfect for:
- Read-aloud time with preschoolers and early readers
- Curious kids who love cities, bridges, dinosaurs, and friendship
- Families sharing the landmarks and flavors of New York City
