A history of French children's literature and the illustrated water cycle: Histoire de Perlette



Histoire de Perlette Goute D'Eau (History of a Drop of Water) a 1936 children's book by French illustrator Béatrice Appia (1899-1998). It  tells the tale of a drop of water falling from a cloud, to earth, and back again. The illustrations are so unique and alluring. I wonder if I can find a copy of this on the French amazon website?
