This Is Venice, 13 Times by Maris Love Sasek

I knew you started reading at a very young age. You also loved the collection of travel books for children written and illustrated by the great Maris Love Sasek. After checking out his book, This is Venice, 13 times from your school library, the librarian finally brought you your own copy - which I believe you still own. The idea of riding in a boat through streets or canals just seemed amazing. But I also actually, this is London, was a close second with the Palace Guard on the front.
