Why read it?
1 author picked Finding Francois as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I was so touched by this book, which very delicately recounts the story of a little pig named Alice who lives in Paris with her grand-mère. One day her grandmother passes on, and Alice must learn to mend her own broken heart by finding new friendship with someone who lives many miles away.

From Katelyn's list on The best children’s fiction books featuring plenty of French flavor.
