5.0 out of 5 stars Educational and entertaining, May 12, 2011

Bella and Harry are two tiny Chihuahua dogs with wide ears that look like the wings of a moth. Throw in their very large eyes and Bella and Harry are very high on the cuteness scale. In this case, they are visiting Paris, making this a lesson about some of the tourist attractions. There is even a mention of the origin of the term French fries. The illustrations are very nicely done, having the appearance of a painting rather than the overly colorful crisp images appearing in some books.
Written at the level of the early elementary school child, this book is educational and entertaining. I give it my highest praise; I would have read it to my daughter if it had been available when she was young.
