    About this ebook

    Discover the life of Marie-Antoinette as you read, draw and play

    A jewel of a book lets you discover the childhood of Marie-Antoinette, her life as the Dauphine and the entertainment of a Queen…
    Marie-Antoinette is a little princess who loves to dance and play like any other child.
    At thirteen she must leave her family, her friends and her country to marry the Dauphin, the future King of France.
    A new life begins in Versailles where the tiresome “Madame Etiquette” makes sure she follows all the rules.
    Marie-Antoinette is very stylish.
    She sets the fashion with extravagant headdresses and sumptuous gowns...
    As a Queen, she favours a more private life, surrounded by her children and close to nature.


    Share a cultural moment with your family while discovering the life of Marie-Antoinette thanks to this richly illustrated book!

    ABOUT THE COLLECTION

    Put yourself in the shoes of an artist or an explorer and learn all there is to know about art and history!
    Whether it is as a museum guide, a temporary exhibition catalog or a monograph, each book from the "Happy Museum" collection can be read while visiting a museum, an exhibition or simply at home.

    The concept is entertaining and interactive so that children can learn while having fun! Throughout the pages, you will find some games, observations, thoughts, creations, drawings and art history notions. Thanks to this varied and interactive content, children will be able to assimilate technical and theoretical notions like “still life”, “watercolors” and “impressionism”, which are sometimes abstract and difficult to understand.

    From 4 years old and for the whole family (parents, grandparents and teachers).
