Hello, Texas!

Christopher S. Jennings, , illus. by David Walker. . Sterling, $6.95 (22pp) ISBN 978-1-4027-6769-2

Jennings invites readers to explore the landscape and sights of Texas as well as opposites. “Hello, loud cannon,” says a boy visiting the Alamo; on the facing page, he greets a “quiet river” at the San Antonio River Walk. Walker’s warm, smudgy acrylics offer a tender tribute to the Lone Star State. Also available: Hello, Florida! , Hello, New York City! , and Hello, Virginia! Ages 2–5. (May)
