Breakfast - drink coffee in cafes in Paris as the city wakens, Parisian dogs play in manicured parks, the gargoyles of Notre Dame and their medieval riddles, Rodin's The Thinker, here is a book of illustrations celebrating French culture and must-see sites in the capital of France. Take an enchanting tour of Paris's most charming places, objects, and pastimes.

The friendly text and whimsical illustrations make this a poetic letter to the City of Light.
