A Day at the Market is a new book for children about the historic Pike Place Market. Acclaimed author and illustrator Sara Anderson portrays the hustle and bustle of Market vendors and the visual appeal of their wares. A long-time resident of Pike Place Market, Anderson has intimate knowledge of the locale's eclectic feel and funky charm. Baskets of fruit, buckets of flowers, busking musicians, and browsing shoppers appear on each page—accompanied by simple rhymes that place the reader at the center of it all.

With her signature cut-paper style and playful rhymes, Anderson captures the essence of the Market she treasures – not only its friendly cacophony, but also the richness of its colorful community, the secrets of its many nooks and crannies, and its irresistible seasonal bounty. 

Sales of A Day at the Market benefit Page Ahead Children's Literacy Program and the Market Foundation, thanks to the generosity of Sara Anderson and Handprint Books of Brooklyn, New York.
