Synopsis
From the soaring silhouette of the Eiffel Tower to the grandeur of Fountainbleau castle, from the legendary light and colors of the seaside town of Saint-Tropez to the sweeping landscapes of France's wine-growing regions, France has a great wealth of architectural, artistic, and natural resources, as well as a long and storied history. Hundreds of full-color photographs take young readers on a whirlwind tour of this glorious country, from its sophisticated cities to its rustic villages to its picturesque seaside. Supplemented by a lively, kid-friendly text, this volume brings to life the unparalleled culture, history, and natural beauty of France.
