What is it about?

Amazing illustrated book for children ages 4-7. ‘Get on your Bike’ portraits streetscapes with all types of bikes, and a huge variety of people and kids on them.  Children and grown ups (with kids’ souls)  will be able to enjoy and imagine their lives with bikes that are used on a daily basis in The Netherlands and more and more around the world. 

A nice story about conflict resolution, it is also an invitation to imagine possible cities. Available also in Spanish: “Date una vuelta en bici” and Dutch: “Ga toch fietsen”
