Polly, Isabelle, and Henri walk. They walk in Paris. Paris is big. Paris is busy. They see a square. The square is loud. People laugh and talk. Henri is happy. Isabelle is calm. Polly is curious. Dancers come to the square. The dancers move fast. Music plays loud. Isabelle taps her foot. Henri joins the dance. Polly flies up high. Polly is colorful. Polly makes noise. People watch and clap. Henri smiles at Isabelle. "Paris is fun," says Henri. Isabelle smiles back. "We love Paris," she says. Polly feels happy. They walk home. The lights are bright. Paris is magic. They remember this night. Paris is special to them.
That's the story.
