The Adventures of Lefty and Righty: The Windy City is an entertaining and educational children’s picture book written by Lori Orlinsky. Lefty and Righty are two extraordinary socks who have snuck out of the house to go on an adventure. Lefty and Righty are on a quest to experience the best Chicago has to offer. They tour the city on famous trains, eat delectable Chicago-style hot dogs, and even take in the sights on a water taxi. They experience out-of-this-world history and nature at the Field Museum and experience The Bean up close. And after such an eventful day, Lefty and Righty go to an actual White Sox game. This book is a delightful celebration of Chicago.
Lori Orlinsky has written another marvelous children’s story with clever rhymes to capture a child’s imagination and attention. The Adventures of Lefty and Righty: The Windy City hits close to home as Lori also lives in Chicago and delightfully explains all the things that make the city great. The illustrations by Kenn Vidro are clever and colorful and give off an aura I feel fits in well with Chicago. I found the book both educational and interesting, as I never knew there were so many attractions in Chicago. I will have to add it to my bucket list! I loved that Lori also added more details about all the attractions and places she mentions – allowing the reader more insight into Chicago and its history. This is a wonderful story for anyone interested in Chicago or a fun tale of some mischievous socks.
