In German: Children's book reading

A girl who can talk to birds. A secret magic that permeates all of Paris. And a tower that hides the gateway to a forest full of wonders.
Kathrin Tordasi presents volumes 1 and 2 of her magical children's book series ‘Birds of Paris’: Following a sudden intuition, young Léa enters a hidden path in the shadow of Notre Dame Cathedral. What she observes there will change her life forever, because behind the Paris we know as tourists lies an even more fascinating secret metropolis that guards an ancient magic. Here, Léa not only finds shimmering magical birds, enchanted inks, eerie secret societies and clever pigeons, but also what she has long desired: best friends who stick together no matter what!
In a captivating blend of parallel world fantasy and friendship story, Kathrin Tordasi whisks us away to a magical world full of adventure, secret places, exciting treasure hunts and delicious chocolate croissants. (Fischer Sauerländer, 2024, illustrated by Heiko Hentschel).
