Along the way he loses Pete and his family in the city's famous subway system. Finally after an exhausting day of adventures, Larry is reunited with his family at the top of the Empire State Building.  This book takes young readers on a dog's-eye view of the greatest city in the world. Sidebar entries enhance the story, offering fascinating factoids about the places Larry visits.“Larry’s determined quest is only part of what makes this book–and the other books in the \u003ci\u003eLarry Gets Lost\u003c\/i\u003e series–so engrossing; there are also sidebars with fun facts about the New York landmarks Larry encounters, such as that the Metropolitan Museum of Art contains over two million artworks and that traders met on Wall Street as far back as the 1800s. Readers who haven’t yet visited the city will finish this book with a pleasant bite from the travel bug.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e—Margo Orlando Littell, \u003ci\u003eSacramento Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Larry's happy-go-lucky owners never seem to learn that they should leash Larry or leave him at home when they vacation, but Larry's temporary loss is our gain, giving us the opportunity to see the sights of big cities, and Michael Mullin's latest, Larry Gets Lost in New York City, is a wonderful beginner's tour of the Big Apple.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e—\u003ci\u003eBooks for Kids\u003c\/i\u003e blog\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e “\u003ci\u003eLarry Gets Lost in New York City\u003c\/i\u003e takes you on a fun, informative and colorful journey through New York City.  As Larry and Pete get one step closer to each other, you'll become that much more informed about the city you live in.” \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—Baby Meets City\u003c\/i\u003e blog\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“This is a first-rate lost and found journey.
