This book is good when discussing cultures because it is told from the perspective of a french dog who is in an american train station and how he interprets the people from all over the world.

So darn cute! The exotically colorful illustrations complement the rhyming text perfectly. I have to buy this for some child.

This is a favorite of my daughter. Carlos looks just like our French Bulldog, Lulu.
