People Go There to Be Amazed

People Go There to Be Amazed invites you to reflect on the amazing people who make NYC such a special place. Discover what it feels like to see the Statue of Liberty for the first time, where to find the best tamales in the city (hint: It is someone’s home), and the joy of finding a school that makes you feel right at home.  The young writers at Robert A. Van Wyck M.S. 217Q make every page shine with reflections about joyful times spent with friends and family, memories about summer days, and even the unforgettable adventures of New York City superheroes of their own creation.  Join us on this journey through Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn, and immerse yourself in all the beauty and excitement New York City has to offer.
