Paolo, Emperor of Rome, Mac Barnett

Description

A daring dog takes a whirlwind tour of Italy's capital city in search of freedom in "Paolo, Emperor of Rome", a picture book from beloved storyteller Mac Barnett and masterful illustrator Claire Keane.

Paolo the dachshund is trapped. Though he lives in Rome, a city filled with history and adventure, he is confined to a hair salon. Paolo dreams of the sweet life--la dolce vita--in the Eternal City. And then, one day, he escapes!

Paolo throws himself into the city, finding adventure at every turn. Join our hero as he discovers the wonders of Rome: the ruins, the food, the art, the opera, and--of course--the cats.

Readers will cheer the daring of this bighearted dog, whose story shows that even the smallest among us can achieve great things.
