Madeline and the Cats of Rome
|
| | | Written by the grandson of Ludwig Bemelmans, this is the first all-new Madeline book in almost 50 years. Miss Clavel and the 12 little girls leave the gray skies of Paris for spring in Rome, where Madeline finds an unexpected adventure involving a thief, a chase, and many, many cats. Annotation: John Bemelmans Marciano, the grandson of Ludwig Bemelmans, the original author of the Madeline series, shares his own version of the popular character's adventures in this Roman odyssey. Leaving rainy Paris for glorious Rome, the girls experience the delights of the great city until Miss Clavel's camera is stolen. In search of the thief, Madeline naturally ends up in a lot of trouble, and strangely, a whole lot of cats. With illustrations mimicking the classic originals.
| Praise| "Having inched his way into his grandfather's spotlight with a Madeline board book and other tie-ins, Marciano tries out a full-dress solo performance here--and makes the grade nicely." 7/15/2008 |
