Rooftops in Tangier: The 8







I think I prefer Tangier from above, observing the scenes and sounds around me. Of course being inside of it all is exciting and sensory in a different way. Four filmmakers and four poets/writers pairing off to film the sights, scenes and sounds of Tangier in Super 8...what will develop?

Bonjour! I love your blog! In celebration of Bastille Day, I am writing to inform you about a children’s book series my mom wrote about France, the Three Sisters series. I was born in Paris, and both of my parents are true Francophiles. The series follows my two younger sisters and I on adventures throughout France with Doodle, the French-American poodle. In each book (Elizabeth Goes to Paris, Katherine Has a Ball, and Charlotte’s Christmas Château), an item always goes missing, and in order to retrieve it, we are led on a chase around France. The books introduce the French language in an easy-to-manage way, and included is a dictionary in the back of each book! Incorporated into the series are French monuments, foods, restaurants, holidays, and more! They are educational yet fun and sophisticated. The process has truly been a labor of love for my sisters and me, and it is wonderful being able to share these books with my family, as well as you. I am e-mailing you in support of my mom’s efforts and talent. If you are interested in more information about the series, please feel free to contact me at thethreesisters.france@gmail.com! I hope you have a wonderful holiday and enjoy these remarkable books!
