My sister Cath gave Poppy this gorgeous book for her birthday – COME WITH ME TO PARIS. Written by Gloria Fowler and illustrated by Min Heo, it is an absolute beauty, with colourful illustrations that would make the most devoted Francophile weak at the knees and jump on board the first Air France flight to ‘Paree’. 💋💋
This charming rhyming book is a great introduction to the sights and culture of Paris. The book begins by inviting the reader to come along on the journey and ends with a good night wish:
“Paris is a beautiful city in France; Please come visit, should you have the chance.
“The French call it Paree, and there is so much to see; Come with me and you’ll see: it’s a great place to be!
“At the end of our trip, au revoir and bonne nuit! Je t’aime my dear one, and je t’aime to Paree!”
Colorful and whimsical illustrations feature well-known landmarks such as: The Eiffel Tower, The Palais Garnier, The Louvre, Sacré-Coeur, Sainte-Chapelle, Notre Dame, the Luxembourg Gardens, the Arc de Triomphe, and more.
