Jeffrey Lindberg's books
Coney - A Trip to Luna Park
It’s 1904 and a new amusement park is being built in Coney Island, Brooklyn.
But the builders are having it constructed right on the dune home of Selena, a tough little rabbit who lives there. Fortunately, she meets Millie, a girl who loves rabbits! She helps Selena cope with the loss of her home.
This magical story weaves together the friendship of two girls, and how they confront the men who have destroyed Selena’s home. Against the backdrop of images of Luna Park, inspired by photos of the real historical place, the story reaches a dramatic conclusion in the nighttime Coney Island! And the readers will be amazed when Millie and Selena take a trip to the moon!
Author and illustrator Jeffrey Lindberg masterfully tells a fictional story of the history of this beloved American landmark paired with gorgeous painterly illustrations, in his new picture book Coney: A Trip to Luna Park.
