About This Book

A group of American girls and their family spend a season touring European cities, moving from Paris through Spain, England, Germany, and Italy. Episodes combine everyday domestic concerns—finding housing, arranging household help, and keeping up lessons—with local festivals, excursions into mountains and towns, and small-scale adventures. The episodic, youth-centered narrative focuses on cultural observations, warm hospitality, holiday customs, and the children's playful resourcefulness and growing responsibilities as they adapt to new settings.
