Hello Avy,

have you tried the bookshop in neighboaring France or sometime you find some at the big shopping center such as Carrefour or Thoiry or Etrembieres if you live on the other side of the lake.  you might want to check also Nature et découverte, they have just open a shop in Balexert.  May be you want to call all these places b4 going and check if they have what you are looking for.

best of luck and have a safe and very pleasant journey .... was there just a few days ago:)
