Summary: |
Determined to be adopted by Mademoiselle Madeleine, a costumer, Doggie begins sneaking into her shop at night from the pet shop next door and designing costumes to turn himself into a variety of creatures he believes she might notice. Doggie sits in the window of Mr. Albert's pet shop watching the world pass by and wishing someone would come and take him home. Along the street comes a ravishing woman, ribbons fluttering, many-colored buttons wobbling as she runs along in her bright green shoes. It is Miss Madeleine, the seamstress from next door. Doggie decides then and there that he must persuade Miss Madeleine to adopt him and devises fantastic schemes to gain her attention. Will his ingenuity win the day? Beautifully illustrated by Fanny, this warm and witty book will appeal to children with its originality and the charm of its hero. |
