The Ultimate Edition Eloise

by Kay Thompson and Hilary Knight...so I never read these books as a child...or I don't remember reading them at all. I have heard all sorts of interesting things about them...perhaps Eloise was patterned after Liza Minnelli or something...for a book made in the 50s this was quite something...a girl of 6 and her nanny, living in the Plaza Hotel...with tons of hotel personnel at her beck and call...but no mother to be found. She visits Paris, London and Moscow as well. Incredible illustrations with the carefree life of a 6 year old without rules! It was fun to read...
