My Review: 

I loved reading Maria Castellucci Moore’s Vivienne in Paris. This new to me author has written an entertaining tale while teaching the readers what can be seen in Paris, France. I loved how she added some words in the French language to help learn younger ones to learn more Paris and the country. I enjoyed following Viviene on her adventures throughout the city. She is so sweet and a fun main character getting to know. Even though I am not the targeted audience for this book, it was still a pleasure to read. I loved reading it and thought it was fantastique.

Vivienne in Paris is beautifully illustrated by the talented artist, Emanuela Mannello. The pictures of Vivienne and the surrounding areas perfectly go with the story. They give a wonderful visual for the little ones to imagine her adventures all throughout the book and a great addition to it. 

Vivienne in Paris will be getting a very well deserved five plus stars. I believe readers who are between the ages of four and nine years old. As well as, for those who want to see the beautiful city of Paris through the eyes of a little girl. I would love to read more books by the talented, 
Maria Castellucci Moore, in the future. 

I received a hard cover copy of Maria Castellucci Moore’s Vivienne in Paris from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
