It's on order at a couple of libraries in our system, so I placed a request for our kids.<BR/><BR/>They've been learning French for the past few years (I'll post some more book titles when I have a chance to think/remember), and can't wait for their first trip soon. Soon, we all hope!Beckyhttp://farmschool.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7245036.post-20731166858985949142008-04-27T09:42:00.000-05:002008-04-27T09:42:00.000-05:00Camille,<BR/><BR/>BIJOU, BONBON & BEAU: THE KITTENS WHO DANCED FOR DEGAS is another children's book set in Paris.Elaine Magliarohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09829330276633865868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7245036.post-42105062397805916772008-04-26T23:37:00.000-05:002008-04-26T23:37:00.000-05:00Sprite, I've never seen the Anatole cartoons. How could I have missed those?<BR/><BR/>Girl D., a car named Doucette is utterly charming. I want to see that movie. I am happy to know it is on DVD now.<BR/><BR/>Elaine, Adele & Simon looks absolutely WONDERFUL! <BR/><BR/>I was trying to think of some other children's books set in Paris. There must be more. After I did this post I thought of The Happy Orpheline.<BR/><BR/>Any others?Camillehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10422449200792287901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7245036.post-2344589414979406032008-04-26T14:27:00.000-05:002008-04-26T14:27:00.000-05:00Camille,<BR/><BR/>This post makes me wistful. I have never gone to Paris--maybe some day. EVERYBODY BONJOURS! sounds like a good book.<BR/><BR/>How about ADELE & SIMON? I met the author and illustrator of the book recently. I do love Barbara McClintock's picture book art.Elaine Magliarohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09829330276633865868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7245036.post-44552770131931588922008-04-26T11:43:00.000-05:002008-04-26T11:43:00.000-05:00Camille, my husband and just watched the DVD Paris, je t'aime last night, and it was lovely.

I didn't realize they were based on books, but I should have known anything the CBC does is literary and high quality.spritehttp://www.spritewrites.netnoreply@blogger.com
