A Pigeon, a Mouse, and the Magic of New York City: New Children's Adventure Book "The Concrete Jungle" Soars This Fall
The Concrete Jungle written by Sebastian Podesta and illustrated by Pablo Fernandez De Landa
In this heart-warming and adventurous tale, now available on Amazon (https://tinyurl.com/ye34f58w) a spirited pigeon named Bleecker and his brilliant mouse friend Jojo set out from their home in the shadowy subway tunnels on a daring quest to discover the mythical "Outside World." Along the way, they encounter a colorful cast of characters-from friendly moles to wily alligators and a band of pioneering rats-each teaching them lessons about courage, trust, and the spirit of adventure.
"This story was born after walking off a train in Grand Central and seeing a bird fly by. I immediately wondered what life was like for this bird, which was likely born underground and had never been outside before," said author Sebastian Podesta. "Bleecker and Jojo's journey is about curiosity, friendship and finding purpose through our unique talents."
A Love Letter to New York City
The Concrete Jungle captures the wonder of the New York City subway system in vivid, cinematic detail. Landa's stunning illustrations bring Bleecker and Jojo's odyssey to life, balancing humor and heart in a way that resonates with both children and adults.
Perfect for young readers, this book blends classic adventure storytelling with urban wonder, offering a fresh and imaginative perspective on what lies beneath one of the world's most iconic cities.
