Cycle City is a transport-focused seek-and-find, minus the SUVs and trucks! For those of you who grew up with Richard Scarry’s illustrated catalogues, you’ll admire Farrell’s world-building and her eco-friendly effort to index every wheeled simple machine known to man (or animal, in this case.). As an unexpected bonus there’s an excessive amount of gelato and an on-the-nose reference to bureaucratic speed — the Mayor is an actual SNAIL. (Thank you to our C-Ville aunties for sharing this beautiful book with us and for the MONDO LLAMA coloring posters featured in the background pics.)
