Kaye and Donald Barley s photographs of Parisian carousels capture the whimsy, wit, and charm of the raucous merry-go-rounds that pepper the cobblestone streets and manicured parks of the City of Light. So grab a copy of Carousels of Paris and let your imagination wander back to a world full of colored lights and painted horses, quaint carriages and playful tigers, fantastical griffins and endangered dodos. --Juliet Blackwell, New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Carousel of Provence and Letters from Paris Simply enchanting! The carousels are delightful and the photographers manage to bring them to life. I half expected them to leap off the pages. I absolutely adored this book! --Jenn McKinlay, New York Times bestselling author and author of Paris is Always a Good Idea
