Riassunto:

A pair of professional-grade playing card decks featuring whimsical paintings of 52 quintessentially New York City characters and objects from two-time Caldecott winner and bestselling author Sophie Blackall.

In a New York minute, you can fall in love, find new dreams to chase, indulge in a new-to-you cuisine, and lose your wallet, if you're not careful. The streets of New York come to life in these 52 clever and colorful cards: mermaids, firemen, Rockettes, Central Park, pizza, pretzels, bagels, dumplings, hot dogs, and more. Accompanying the two charmingly illustrated decks of playing cards is a booklet offering the rules for classic card games. The fun is just as endless and unique as New York City in all her whirling, twirling wonder.
