"""[A] delightful and brightly illustrated debut.... readers will be charmed by the cheery, conversational entries packed with intriguing arcana (from 1897 to 1953, a ""pneumatic tube mail system"" stretched across Manhattan and into Brooklyn, using compressed air to push mail through subterranean tubes to the post office).""--Publishers Weekly"
