“Absolutely lovely children’s illustrated book – pure joy, also for grown-ups”: The story of a young boy who lives in Reboul, France, who dreams of going to Paris. One day, after reading a book about Paris, he decides to pack a lunch and head for the city (…) What Henri sees, we see, in a flowing panorama of pictures conceived by the eminent graphic designer Saul Bass.
