    Hello, Patricia! I’ve never been to France but would love to go. I did live in Maine for a while and the local kids shows had French segments so I may have a little brushing up to do. 😉 Your books (and travels) sound interesting! I look forward to taking a peek at them. I’ve followed you on Twitter, FB and Good Reads.
