Learn about the Eiffel Tower, beloved and iconic symbol of Paris, France, and one of the most recognizable structures in the world! When the plans for the Eiffel Tower were first announced, many people hated the design of the future landmark, calling it ungainly and out of step with the beautiful stone buildings of the city. But once it went up for the World's Fair in 1889, the people of Paris quickly fell in love with the tower. Today it seems impossible to imagine Paris without the Eiffel Tower, which greets millions of visitors each year who climb up its wrought-iron stairs, ride its glass elevators, and enjoy the wonderful views of the city spread out below it. This book, part of the New York Times best-selling series, is enhanced by eighty illustrations and a detachable fold-out map complete with four photographs on the back. Review: Perfect for Paris obsessed kid - My 10 year old daughter has an interest in all things French and dreams of going to Paris some day so I was happy to see this book at her school's scholastic book fair. Unfortunately, we lost the book when we took a road trip up to Montreal. When we got back home, I looked here to see if I could find it and I did! She's read it a bunch of times now and has retained all the information inside. It's an informative but not boring read for a kid. Highly recommend. Review: Great Book - These books are fantastic for the younger kids who are just getting used to reading chapter books. Our 9 year old loves them because she learns about people and other important things in history.

Fantastic Book of the History of the Eiffel Tower!
We really liked the history and story. We liked how it explained and connected ideas. The pictures and fold out map were so cool and fun to look at! Reading level was perfect and engaging for my grade 3 daughter!
