提到旅行,LP对全球的背包客来说,无人不知、无人不晓。孤独星球出版社(Lonely
Planet Publications,缩写LP)被认为是世界最大的私人旅游指南出版社。其出版的Not for
Parents系列图书,是该出版社首次为儿童出版有关世界各地风土人情的读本,分为“国家系列”和“城市系列”。
这些读本每一个对开页讲述某个城市或国家某一方面的文化,包括名胜介绍、历史知识、现代建筑、地域文化等方方面面的内容。为了让读者能够拓展阅读,在页脚还有相应的网址供资讯查询。
全书的主旨正如LP的创始人惠勒夫妇讲述的那样:旅行指南并不是旅行必备品,真正要携带的是旅行的心境:怀着谦卑,不带成见,敏锐地感受隐藏在风景后的历史。

內容簡介: |
Lonely Planet: The world''s leading travel guide
publisher*
This is not a guidebook. And it is definitely ''not-for-parents''.
It is the real, inside story about one of the world''s most famous
cities - Paris. In this book you''ll hear fascinating tales
about creepy stone gargoyles, ghostly railway stations, huge
castles and amazingly pampered pets.
Check out cool stories about stuffed animals, caves filled with
bones and the deadly guillotine. You''ll find cyclists, junk
collectors and musicians, and snails on the menu for dinner.
Where can you pretend you''re at the beach in the middle of the
city?
Who smiles at 6 million people a year?
Who had her own life-size village built just to play in?
Which famous building was built inside out?
This book shows you a Paris your parents probably don''t even
know about.
Authors: Written and researched by Lonely Planet, Klay
Lamprell
