Tall City, Wide Country, by renowned illustrator Seymour Chwast, invites young readers to pack their bags for a journey from a rural environment to an urban landscape. Enjoy panoramic illustrations of broad cows, expansive sunshine, and seemingly endless horizons … then turn the book sideways and do some big-city sightseeing, taking in vertical parades, towering skyscrapers, and high-rising elevators. Light on words but big on charm, this unique picture book is a trip worth taking!

Born in 1931 in New York City, Seymour Chwast developed his talent for drawing from an early age. In the 1950s, he cofounded Push Pin Studios, and he remains the organization’s director today. Chwast’s style has always been marked by a rich eclecticism that has set his work apart from the mainstream, and in 1985, he was honored with a Gold Medal from the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA).
