France a la Carte (especially the introductory paragraph entitled "A Day to Remember") is wonderfully refreshing and an exceptional piece of writing. I reccommend it to readers of all ages.
This book is my bible.

I innocently walked into the library of my suburban high school, seated myself at a table, and discovered this incredible book, entitled France A La Carte, by Richard Binns, laying there. Just waiting for someone to open it. As I turned to the introduction, I read the most breathtakingly wonderful paragraph I have ever read in my life. It was called A DAY TO REMEMBER. Since that moment, life has never been the same. "Why is it that some hours of our life fix themselves so vividly in our memories?" Finding this book will certainly be an experience to remain embedded in my memory for the rest of time. To be savoured whenever my human spirit needs refreshing.

There is a feeling that you get when you read certain works of literature. It's a feeling that fills the empty chambers of your heart and makes you truly feel alive. This is the feeling that I got from France A La Carte. The opening paragraph entitled A Day To Remember was one of the most emotionaly stimulating display of words that I have ever come across. Sitting around a table in the library, my friends and I were able to come to terms with the chaos of the teenage world in which we live. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a heart. And be sure to read the introduction- A Day To Remember.
This book is GREAT!
