"Harry, did you know the Eiffel Tower is 986 feet tall? That's almost 50 giraffes stacked on top of each other!"
"Yes, Claude Monet is my favorite. He painted a collection called 'Water Lilies', but the paintings are kept in another museum. France has a lot of important museums to see while here. That's why I love to travel. There is so much to see and learn about the world."
"Well Harry, they might have french fries, but did you know 'french' probably describes the way the potato is sliced? French, in this case, is a cooking term. French fries were created in another country, Belgium, according to most people."
