With a minimum of words and a maximum of illustrations, 'This Is Paris' captures the magic of this capital city.
"Not only are the books visually beautiful, they really do take you on a journey...the drawings contained are so exquisitely detailed and luscious. The text is simple, clean and informative, with a hint of mischeviousness that kids adore. But it is the detailed pictures in this large format book that truly capture the heart - not only for their beauty but for the extraordinary, everyday life detail that has beenpoured into them." ~kids-bookreview.com
