<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Sixteen-year-old Mia travels to Paris to attend an elite ballerina program, and along the way meets a cute French boy, finds an unexpected rival, and discovers the truth behind a family legend.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>As sweet as a macaron from Laduree, with writing as crisp as a freshly baked baguette, this romantic novel set in Paris about an American ballerina and a charming French boy is </b><b><i>parfait</i></b><b> for fans of </b><b><i>American Royals</i></b><b> and Netflix's </b><b><i>To All the Boys I've Loved Before</i></b><b>. </b></b> <p/>Mia Jenrow has always known she's destined to be a professional ballerina. In fact, it's in her blood--according to family legend, her too-many-greats-to-count-grandmother once danced for the Paris Opera and was painted by Degas himself! Her parents say it's just a fantasy, but to Mia it's so much more than that. It's her fate. <p/>Mia is planning to spend a magical summer in France pursuing her dream, but as she pirou-ettes into Paris, she soon realizes it may be a bit more complicated than she hoped. For starters, there's her rival, Audrey, who will stop at nothing to show her up. There's her ballet instructor, whose impossibly high standards push her to the breaking point. And then . . . there's Louis. Devastatingly, distractingly charming Louis. He's eager to show Mia his city--and Mia is more than happy to hop on his Vespa and wrap her arms around him as they pass the gleaming lights of the Eiffel Tower. <p/>Mia's summer was supposed to be about ballet--but there's a reason Paris is called the City of Love. . . .<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Praise for KISSES AND CROISSANTS: <p/><b>A <i>Bustle</i> Best New Books to Read This April selection</b> <p/><b>A Junior Library Guild selection</b> <p/> "A <b>charming</b> story about family, first love, and chasing your dreams.
