I think the Eiffel Today is such a fascinating piece of history, especially if you know all the scientific and physics applications it possesses (if you don't, read up on it, I think it's so fascinating).

But this was a look into the daughter of Eiffel, Claire. Not much is really known of her so this is an imagining of her life. She was a help to her father in so many ways- became a mother figure at age 14 to her siblings and helped her father in his business.

The sights and sounds of Paris come through in this book, I could just imagine being there and watching the Tower go up. I had no idea that Eiffel was taken to court for another project so I learned some new things in this story.
