Miroslav Sasek's illustrated tour of Paris, first published in 1959 and faithfully reissued — the Seine, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, the cafes and gardens, all in his stylish mid-century line.

The illustrations have been preserved exactly, with facts quietly updated in the back. It charms children and the parents who remember it from their own shelves.

A sweet gift for a new baby, or for the Paris lover who never outgrew it.

For the child and the Francophile both. A small classic that travels well.
