Come explore Paris with Peek, the cutest little chien in town! This delightful book for young readers tells the story of a little dog with a big heart. Peek is spending spring break in Paris with her family, exploring all the amazing sights, but she just can't seem to bond with her doggie cousin, Floof, a snooty French poodle, who is Peek's polar opposite. Floof is a cool-as-a-cucumber well-behaved canine, while the impetuous Peek gets carried away with excitement and often "forgets" the rules. After a rocky start to the trip, Peek starts to feel a bit homesick, missing her puppy friends from home as well as her comfy blanket and favorite squeaky toy taco, which got lost in the mail. But a visit to the local animal shelter soon has Peek's spirits on the rise! There she meets poor shy Teacup, a little pup in need of a loving home¿ and a warm blanket (thanks to a selfish dachshund cagemate.) Teacup's dilemma inspires Peek to go on an altruistic adventure that ends up getting her new friend just what she needs. Maybe Paris isn't so bad after all, especially after that squeaky taco shows up! "Peek in Paris" showcases author Mottinger's charming prose, as she brings to life this loveable pooch with a heart of gold. It's a relatable story in a fun and fanciful setting that will have readers rooting for the puppy protagonist at the center of it all. The gorgeous illustrations make you feel like you've fallen into an old movie set in the City of Lights. Paris sparkles in the background of Peek's adventures, which take us from the Eiffel Tower to the Arc de Triomphe to the banks of the Seine. And the other canine characters are absolutely adorable, even stuck-up Floof, whose haughty demeanor provides a comedic contrast to Peek's goofy antics. Kids will fall in love with this sweet story that's packed full of hope, heart and joie de vivre!
