Before you start an adventure, you have to arrive.
Welcome to Barcelona.
Join Lola and her best friend Flo, a curious French Bulldog with a big appetite and an even bigger sense of adventure, as they spend a day exploring one of Europe's most colourful and exciting cities.
Arriving by sailboat at Port Vell, the two friends tie up their little red boat beside the sparkling waters of the Mediterranean Sea and set off to discover wherever the day might lead them.
Their adventure begins with a delicious breakfast of churros and hot chocolate before they wander through a bustling market filled with colourful fruit, sweet treats and strange sea creatures from the sea. Along the way they meet street performers, watch daring acrobats, explore winding old streets and discover that Barcelona is a city full of surprises.
Lola and Flo visit the extraordinary Sagrada FamÃlia, a church unlike any other in the world, where they climb high into the towers and look out across the city. They explore the magical world of Parc Güell, filled with colourful mosaics, whimsical buildings and hidden corners, and discover the playful paintings of the famous artist Joan Miró.
Their journey takes them across Barcelona by Metro, funicular railway and cable car, soaring high above rooftops and the sea. They explore an old castle, defend the city from imaginary pirate ships, cool off with a swim in the warm Mediterranean Sea and enjoy a giant seaside paella as the sun begins to set.
But this is more than a book about famous landmarks.
A Little Traveller's Guide to Barcelona is a gentle, story-led introduction to travel itself. Through Lola and Flo's adventures, young readers discover how exciting it can be to explore somewhere new, notice small details, meet friendly people and take time to enjoy the world around them.
Written especially for children, the story combines simple, rhythmic language with gentle humour and a warm sense of curiosity. The focus is not on facts and figures, but on experience, imagination and discovery. Children travel alongside Lola and Flo as they wander through the city, sharing meals, solving little problems and finding adventure in unexpected places.
Perfect for reading aloud, independent readers and families who love travel, this beautifully illustrated story encourages children to see the world as a place full of wonder.
Ideal for:
- Children aged 4-8
- Families who love travel and storytelling
- Read-aloud bedtime reading
- Young readers curious about different places and cultures
- Dog lovers, especially fans of French Bulldogs
Part of the Travel For Little People series, A Little Traveller's Guide to Barcelona can be enjoyed on its own or alongside the other adventures of Lola and Flo, including Paris, London, Rome and Amsterdam.
Whether it's your first visit to Barcelona or simply your next adventure from the comfort of home, Lola and Flo are ready to show you the city one step at a time.
