Summary: Fun Souvenir of Venice for Children and Adults!
Comment: I cchecked this out of the library to share some of the magic of Venice with my tweleve year old. She's been at me because I go on and on about La Serenissima, and having read the book, she now understands a bit of why I came to love this city so. I bought the book to keep with my Venice souvenirs as it gives so much information about the city and her sights.

Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: This is the best child's book I have seen so far. I read it to my 7 year old son and I loved it as much as he did. I have been to Venice and I learned a lot of new things that I did not know. The story is interesting in a travelogue sort of way and the illustrations are wonderful and varied. The only similar book that comes close would be The Three Golden Keys about Prague. As a previous reviewer stated it would be great if there was a book about every city like this. Although a child's book it is quite substantial, beautifully produced, and well worth the money.

Summary: Vendela made our trip to Venice
Comment: My 8 year old son read Vendela over and over before we went to Venice. His familiarity with the city made our trip - he recognized sites from the air on the way in based on the book! The author weaves facts and history into the narrative so we didn't realize until there how much we had learned about history, art, statues, bridges, cats, lions, and getting around -- my son even figured out where we were lost one time based on an illustration he remembered. We based much of our visit on what Vendela had done, since it felt familiar (and magical for dad & boy). Vendela is part of our scrapbook now; terrific book. I wish such a work were available for every city. Beautiful illustrations, too!
