"In an old house in Paris..."

Do you remember Madeline, the "smallest one" of twelve, little girls who lived in that old house in Paris? It's a short and sweet read about an orphan girl who pooh-poohs tigers and has her appendix taken out, all told in rhyme. So if New York has the fawbulous Eloise, Paris has the brave little Madeline! But what I truly love most about this picture book are Ludwig Bemelmans drawings and paintings of Paris! I guess that's because I just adore Paris! With all its lights and gardens and beautiful bridges, it's Tudylightful!
