Just want Napoleon III?
Hello! My name is Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte, but you can call me Napoleon the Third. I was born a long, long time ago, in the year 1808. When I was a little boy, I was a prince! My uncle was the famous Emperor of France, Napoleon Bonaparte. I always dreamed that one day I would help the people of France, just like he did.
When I grew up, I became the leader of France in the year 1852. I looked at the big city of Paris and thought, 'I can make this city even more wonderful!' At the time, the streets were small and crowded, which made it hard for people to get around. So, I helped build big, wide new roads called boulevards. We also planted lots of green trees and made beautiful parks where children and families could play and have picnics.
I lived to be 64 years old, and I always tried to make France a better place. I lived a very full life. Today, when people visit the beautiful city of Paris and walk along the wide streets or play in the lovely parks, they are enjoying the wonderful city I helped to build.
