Passing By by Yona Tepper

Publisher: Kane Miller Ages: 2-5

Little girl Yale watches the comings and goings from her balcony in a question answer format perfect for making predictions. We ask, “What do you think she will see next?” Coming from a rural neighborhood, we can glimpse into city life as the main character views her world from above. Our favorite part of the story, though, is the end when Yale sees her dad coming home from work. Kids can identify with this scene as they are immersed into city life with Passing By.
