About the book

Published in French as "La Joie de Vivre".

In Zest for Life Paulines parents have died and, aged ten, she comes to live with relatives in the small seaside town of Bonneville in Normandy. The sole inheritor of her parents legacy, Paulines interests are guarded by a collective of well-intentioned but not very effective souls and it is not long before her fortune is at risk.
