Some of our earliest memories took place on the seat of a bicycle. Who can forget the sense of freedom felt with that first set of wheels? Bikes have provided us with not only the most healthful, environmentally-friendly way to get from one place to another, but with a lot of fun and adventure, too. Pop-Up Tour de France celebrates the most exciting bike adventure in the world. In the pages of this book, readers can follow Tour competitors through the French countryside, up dramatic Alpine mountains, then sprint to the finish line on the streets of Paris. They will enjoy an intro to cycling history and learn how riders train, strategize, and collaborate in pursuit of cycling's top award--the coveted Yellow Jersey. Ages 9+
