Ah, Paris! City of haute couture, haute cuisine, and…hauteur. City of long lines and long meals. Let's just say: Paris, at first glance, is not the most family friendly travel destination. But …what if traveling to Paris with children expanded your horizons instead of limiting them? What if children were an entrée, not an obstacle, to seeing the real—not the tourist's—Paris? Special Offer - 30% off $13.97 (Retail $19.95) Order now Author Kim Levesque discovered that traveling to Paris en famille ultimately uncovered a Paris she otherwise would not have known—enough to fill the 384 pages of our new The Little Bookroom Guide to Paris with Children. With her three little girls (2, 4, and 6) in tow, Kim found dozens of activities that Parisian families enjoy. Kim doesn't overlook regular tourist destinations or museums, either. She maps out an efficient trip through the Louvre, but also suggests the little known delight, the Musée des Arts Forains. She points out places where kids can be entertained for hours, and those worth only a quick peek. She describes dozens of easy, casual, and affordable restaurants where French families eat: cafes with roomy interiors and large terrasses; those with continuous service; a new generation of quick (but not fast) food venues; and a Parisian favorite, the Pink Flamingo, a pizzeria where you place your order, are handed a pink mylar balloon take to your "pink nik" spot on the banks of the Canal St-Martin, where your pizza is delivered to you. Everything you need to know about apartment rental is included (including the agencies that Kim herself has used). And whether you have children with you or not, anyone who has been shoehorned into a typical (miniscule) Parisian hotel room will value Kim's discoveries of the hotels with a bit more room than normal. Perhaps my favorite of her recommendations: the Hospitel Hotel Dieu (p. 202). Who knew? Last but not least, she's found stylish shops with distinctively French toys and clothes that will appeal to all budgets. This is the book I wish I had had when I took my own five children to Paris more than 25 years ago and one of the books I'm most proud to have on The Little Bookroom list. I hope you like it as much as I do. For a limited time, The Little Bookroom Guide to Paris with Children is available at for $13.97, 30% introductory discount of the retail price.
