Summary[]

Mrs. Garrett and the girls embark on an overseas vacation to Paris, France during summer recess. Mrs. Garrett attends a prestigious cooking academy, and the four girls take part in a program at a French boarding school. While Mrs. Garrett is busy learning French cooking lessons, it turns out the girls' summer boarding house is oppressive and located far outside of Paris. They are constantly under the watchful eye of Mrs. Southwick, their strict European guardian.

Determined not to let the trip be a total waste, all of girls decide to escape the location to Paris to enjoy their last few days in France: Blair searches for French romance, and Jo attempts to get to a car race in Le Mans, later getting distracted and meeting a biker named David LeClair. Natalie and Tootie meet G. K. Riley, a down-on-his-luck American author, and try encouraging him to try to put down the bottle and start writing again.
