The Little Children of the Luxembourg is a historical fiction book written by Herbert Adams Gibbons and published in 1916. The story is set during World War I and follows the lives of several children who reside in the Luxembourg Palace in Paris. The children’s parents are high-ranking officials in the French government and are forced to flee the city when it is invaded by the Germans. Left behind, the children must fend for themselves and navigate the dangers of war-torn Paris. The novel explores themes of survival, family, and resilience in the face of adversity. The Little Children of the Luxembourg is a poignant and heart-wrenching story that offers a unique perspective on the impact of war on innocent civilians.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
