I have had the privileged of spending out of time in Washington D.C. as I used to commute there to work on a regular basis. Even though I spent a lot of time there I was never able to see all of the site due to work. Washington D.C. is known for its wonderful landmarks. I look forward to taking a trip here with my daughter and wife and experience these wonderful sites together. Well until that time comes this book is a great way to introduce my daughter to some of the famous site of our nation’s capitol.
Sarah McMenemy’s illustrations continue to provide simply yet elegant views of its focused cities. Like other 3D Keepsake Cityscape books, this short but sweet accordion book really makes you want to visit D.C.. Out of the dozen landmarks included in this book, some of them include the Capitol Building, the Vietnam Memorial, the Supreme Court and of course, the White House. I can’t wait till I will be able to share this book with my daughter (now two weeks old) and show her where daddy used to work. I look forward to future 3D Keepsake Cityscape books from Candlewick.
