Poppie the paper doll desires to be more like the others. She has been carefully made by hand, pretty colours and patterns chosen for her, but she doesn't give this a thought and feasts her eyes greedily on what the other dolls have. With their kind help she gets everything - with disastrous consequences! There is a lot to discover in the colourful pictures which make for a fun and interactive reading experience. The story shows kindness, creativity, excess and caring for the environment; along with an important message for little ones to not feel that they have to be like others.

New York City: The Basics offers an accessible look at the dynamic and diverse hub of New York City. Written in a clear, engaging style, the book discusses geographic, historic, demographic, socioeconomic, housing, and governmental aspects of the Big Apple.Since the mid-20th century, New York City has been competing against other global and major cities, including London and Tokyo, primarily driven by global financial and securities markets. Its enormous concentration of capital, as well as its varied and resilient economy, has contributed to its prominent status and its glittering skyline, exemplifying the citys transition from blue-collar manufacturing to a knowledge-based economy. As a cultural capital, the city encompasses an extensive cluster of publishing companies, high-end shopping, a wide variety of unique art scenes, and a pulsating nightlife that includes Broadway shows, exhibits, and fashion events. The chapters touch on different topics, from the history to the demography and immigration, the economy, housing, government and governance, and the citys exceptionalism, ending with an overview of the five boroughs of the city.This book serves as a valuable guide for undergraduate and graduate students in geography, urban studies, urban affairs, and urban planning, and would be an excellent resource for anyone planning a field trip to New York City.
