Skyscraper Babies by April Pulley Sayre, Jeff Sayre

Skyscraper babies grow up, up high. Close to their families. Close to the sky.

This perfectly poetic story is an ode to family and nature in the big city. Squirrels and humans alike rush to get from place to place, all returning to their nooks and nests at the end of the day atop skyscrapers, amidst the stars. This gentle text is sure to lull little ones to sleep as well as instill the importance of coexisting with the natural world.
