I personally have never been to Paris there is something about this city that really creates intrigue. This book is aimed at children and succeeds to educate. The book is tiny and only runs 20 pages but delivers some decent information throughout. Once you remove the book from its slipcase, it almost turns into a classic pop-out book with each page contains a famous site from Paris.
Some of the famous sites included are Notre-Dame De Paris, Moulin Rouge, The Opera and of course, The Eiffel Tower. The colors used in the book have a pastel feel but still are simply enough to not feel cartoonish. If are looking to find out or educate your children on the beauties of Paris, this would be a good place to start. I wasn’t sure what to expect from a 3D cityscape for a book but this beautiful designed accordion-fold book really left me satisfied .
