Ria Sim, creator of the popular Instagram account @coffeecakescafe and author of Dear New York, I Love You, returns with a new love letter to one of New York City’s most beloved places: Central Park. In her signature style, Ria’s sketches reveal the magic tucked into every corner of the park from iconic landmarks to overlooked details. Organised by season, Dear New York, I Love You: Central Park guides readers through the curving roads and paths of the park and includes delightful illustrations and musings on the Central Park Zoo, Bethesda Fountain and the Met, plus the plethora of flora and fauna that visitors can find in the park (including pigeons, racoons and even coyotes!). Both a tribute to Central Park and an invitation to slow down and look closely, readers will join Ria in celebrating Central Park’s winding paths, hidden corners and everchanging beauty.
