Summary |
Matteo Pericoli began his spectacular drawing of Manhattan in 1998. Manhattan Unfurled was published in October 2001 and was quickly embraced by New York City and the entire country. In this new version for young people, the drawing is bound into two sections (East Side and West Side) in an unusual and eye-catching new format. Pericoli adds simple text, and hand-drawn labels, telling young readers how he came to create his drawing (the journey includes boat rides, a motorcycle, and hundreds of photographs). He also encourages kids to see--and draw--a place in a whole new way. "Draw everything," he tells them, "and you'll know a place as you never did before." A wonderful tribute to Manhattan, to cities, and to thinking like an artist. |
