MY REVIEW
What city would a young girl dream of visiting? Paris would be a popular choice because of it’s beauty and romance. A young girl named Vivienne lives in Paris, but was encouraged by her grandfather to look at it in a new way. He told her to take in the sights, smells, and sounds and think about how they make her feel.
Vivienne spends an entire day going to her favorite stores. She enjoyed a croissant for breakfast and loved tasting Brie at the cheese shop. In the hat shop, Vivienne tries on a nice hat and decides to get one for her grandfather. In all the other stores the young girl lets herself experience everything with her senses.
Young children will enjoy this beautiful book. The hardback book is gorgeous inside and out, with artwork that is quality. Children can learn about the culture of Paris when parents read this book to them.
