Because in a giant city, sometimes the smallest things get overlooked. Tiny New York peeks into the city’s nooks and crannies to find the little things that tell the real New York story. Because in New York, Tiny isn’t cute. It’s tough. Tiny doesn’t wait for handouts. It hustles. Tiny isn’t insignificant. It’s precise. Tiny isn’t a jack-of-all-trades. It’s the master of one. There are plenty of books about New York City. But there has never been a book about the smallest things in the biggest city.

The first picture book that the award-winning Sydney Smith has both written and illustrated is a story about feeling small in the city — and finding your way home. On a snowy day in a big city, a little boy hops off a streetcar and walks through downtown, between office buildings, through parks and down busy streets. Along the way, he provides helpful tips about which alleys make good shortcuts, which trees to climb and where to find a friendly face. All the while, the boy searches for what he has lost ... The first book that award-winning illustrator Sydney Smith has written tells a story of what it means to get lost in the city, travel the wrong path and get caught in bad weather — and to ultimately find your way back home. His beautiful watercolour illustrations alternate between full spreads and small panels, evoking the sometimes overwhelming cacophony of urban sights and sounds, as well as the quiet moments that make all of us feel less small in the city.

Sometimes a wish is heard only by the heart... Widow, Ruby Hallet, has almost adjusted to living life on her own. She has her knitting friends in The Yarn Society—they call themselves The Yarnies. Her son, Ben, drops in often to see her—and he’s dating that darling woman, Charlotte. And she has her beloved dog, Mischief. What more could she need? David Quinn has not adjusted to his new life. He misses everything about his old life and he’s come to Belle island to escape. When Ruby and David meet on the beach and slowly become friends, they both begin to think they just might have a chance for a new life. Ben disagrees—loudly and often. The last thing his mother needs is a man in her life. Especially one who is just on the island for a short visit. But when David finds out the one thing Ruby doesn’t need might be exactly what he has to offer, their happiness is in jeopardy. Even the unwavering support of the Yarnies can’t change the cold hard facts. As The Yarnies work on the winter festival, a surprise visit and a wish made at Lighthouse Point might change everything. Because wishes really do come true when you toss a shell into the sea at Lighthouse Point and make a wish. Don’t they? A feel-good read in this spin-off series from Lighthouse Point.
