For New York, that means children's books by authors and illustrators from New York, starting with Eloise by Kay Thompson. Below are three books worth packing, each available in English with links to find them at Bookshop.org or Amazon.
A precocious six-year-old runs riot in the Plaza Hotel.
A boy's delight exploring his snow-covered block, by an author who grew up in Brooklyn.
A girl dreams of flying over 1939 Harlem from her rooftop, by a Harlem-born artist; a Caldecott Honor book.
