Paris-Chien ─ Adventures of an Ex-Pat Dog

When Hudson, an adventurous Norwich Terrier, moves to Paris, he loves the sights and smells. But when he tries to make friends, Hudson is surprised to discover that Parisian dogs only speak French. Hudson's desire to make friends is so strong that he learns a new language and becomes a Paris-Chien! The book introduces French words, although Hudson's experience will be meaningful to any child set down in any new country, city or school.
