About this listen
Six children, cousins, ages nine to almost 18, arrive in the City of Lights, and are overwhelmed by the vastness and beauty of Paris.
Six children, ages nine through "almost" 18, arrive in the City of Lights, Paris.
Arthur and Gricinda, two of the children's parents, already having spent a romantic week alone in Paris, receive their arrival like floodgates at the ready. Their hotel rooms aren't ready, and they must settle in and enjoy the lights and sights of Paris, from three tiny furnished apartments, side by side.
Not ideal.
But the two adult guardians have trips and experiences planned, and gird themselves for the unknown.
Luckily, there's plenty of places to take them all to eat. A universal joy.
Buzz, Zilker, Simone, Tabitha, Cherise, and Antone: Arthur and Gricinda have their hands full.
And it's all worthwhile.

Story
A fun novella. Set in Paris. Yes, a romance. A five and a half week personal stay in Paris recently, added to a life long love affair with the City of Light, helped provide much of the inspiration for this first of three related Paris works. This is a continuing extended family sage covering characters in ages nine to over sixty. It is stand alone, yet creates an arc with the previous work, "The Children" and "Four Shorts, Prequel to 'The Children".
