Boston Public Garden

Add Boston to the list of cities that has one of the cutest public gardens in North America. On a 2010 trip to the harbor city I accidentally discovered the quaint little garden that seems to be perfect for young children. There's a little set of bronze commemoration statues for Robert McCloskey whose award-winning picture book "Make Way for Ducklings" (1941) continues to inspire children around the world. Apparently youngsters play on them so much since 1987 that they have never needed professional polishing. It's a great place to check out if you are ever in the vicinity and a great book to read to children of almost any age.
