Henri’s Walk to Paris

By Gina Munsey, Senior Editor Leave a Comment

You may not be familiar with American graphic designer Saul Bass — but I bet you’d instantly recognize his work! He’s the one who designed those famous green profiles in the Girl Scouts logo, the instantly-recognizable hand in the United Way logo, and more! Today’s book, Henri’s Walk to Paris, happens to be the only children’s book he ever illustrated. Re-released this year for the first time since the 1960s, it’s a really fun story about Henri “who does not live in Paris, but wishes he did.”

Now what would a story about walking to Paris be without a pair of bottes de pluie?

Copyright © 2023 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
