From mega-bestselling author Danielle Steel comes an adorable new children’s picture book featuring her very own Chihuahua!
 
Lights, camera, adorable! Pretty Minnie is back, and it’s her big break when she visits the glitz and glamour of Hollywood! Whether sightseeing with her best friend, taking a dip in the fancy hotel pool, or having a costume fitting at the movie studio, Minnie’s star quality shines as she becomes everyone’s favorite motion-picture pup. This dazzling tale will have young readers shouting, “Hooray for Hollywood!”

“detailed illustrations give Minnie an engaging personality that's hard to resist, and young readers will enjoy Minnie's tiny costumes and fancy accessories.”—Kirkus

“While Steele’s charm-filled plot features a stylish dog and her exciting journeys, it also zeroes in on the inseparable bond between a little girl and her precious pup. An endearing read for children with pets.”—Booklist

Praise for Pretty Minnie in Paris:
 
“Will delight young fashionistas.”—Publishers Weekly
