Soar through New York and discover its magic and monuments in this evocatively illustrated children’s book enriched by intricate lasercut pages.
A musical note filled with wanderlust breaks away from its sheet music to roam all around New York City. It visits Carnegie Hall, the bright lights of Broadway, and a hidden jazz club. It soars between skyscrapers, flies into a bass, improvises in a trumpet, and dances a little swing with a trombone, until it finally finds its place in a guitar playing in Central Park. There, it makes all the difference, and the guitar’s melody becomes a song that enchants passersby.
Beautifully crafted with He´le`ne Druvert’s intricate lasercuts, New York Melody is a wonderfully imaginative introduction to New York and its many unique rhythms for young children.

Hélène Druvert is an illustrator and paper and textile designer.
“An adventurous and curious musical note flutters out of a concert at Carnegie Hall to see what else might be happening in New York City... Druvert employs lyrical verses...creating images that soar along with the music. Inventive, detailed illustrations in blue-gray, black, and white, along with one shining, golden trumpet, alternate with, and provide depth for, breathtaking, incredibly delicate and intricate laser-cut black pages, enriching the sweet, slight tale...; An amazing, glorious experience.”
