V roce 2012 se součástí Nakladatelství Slovart stalo nakladatelství Brio. Nakladatelství Brio vydávalo ve spolupráci s předními spisovateli a výtvarníky nádherně ilustrované originální příběhy a sbírky pohádek pro děti od šesti do dvanácti let. Pro starší děti, mládež a dospělé Brio nabízelo sebrané spisy pohádek a bajek od renomovaných spisovatelů, doplněné o to nejlepší z klasické literatury celého světa. V této tradici pokračujeme také my v rámci stejnojmenné edice.

Stroll past the flowers, plants, sculptures, and charming parterres in twenty-five gardens of Paris, to discover France’s history, culture, and botanical diversity through these open-air museums.
From the most famous gardens―Versailles, Luxemburg, or Tuileries―to the hidden leafy gems―such as the Château de Saint-Jean-de-Beauregard vegetable gardens, the Bourdelle museum’s sculpture garden, or the Albert Kahn Japanese-style garden―this guide takes readers on a cultural tour of France through twenty-five spectacular gardens in and around Paris.
French garden expert and television presenter Stéphane Marie takes readers through the most beloved gardens in central Paris and the surrounding countryside in this informative guide. The history and conception of each garden is explained, providing fascinating cultural and botanical context. Practical details and insightful sidebars help visitors discover the notable features of each garden, and the extensive illustrations that accompany the text offer the armchair traveler a splendid virtual tour. Marie explains the origins of the garden’s name as well as the stories behind its sculptures, parterre gardens, botanical collections, fountains, and other follies present in each site. Garden aficionados will marvel at the natural diversity present in these gardens, with details on the specificities of plants, flowers, and trees.
From vast parks to private gardens, communal plots to the grounds of historical monuments, this reference guide offers an extensively illustrated selection of the most exceptional gardens in and around Paris, including drawings and photographs along with opening hours, prices, and what to do when visiting.
