The Palace of Versailles

In this book, children learn the fascinating story of the Palace of Versailles, built by French King Louis XIV. This extravagant building contains vast gardens, ornate halls with shimmering mirrors and 700 rooms with carved wood decorations.

The king hired 36,000 men just to create the small lakes that decorate Versailles. He invited hundreds of people to huge parties where ballet dancers and horse shows entertained, and large platters of food filled the tables.

Children will learn about art, architecture and history in this entertaining, picture-filled book
