Pierrot, Dog of Belgium

by Walter Alden Dyer and Gordon Grant

Book Overview

The children called him Pierrot from the first. That is, of course, no proper name for a Flemish dog, but you see M re Marie had come from Dinant, where almost everybody speaks French, and she had been taught French in school. Besides, she had French friends in Brussels and was very fond of everything French and warm and southern. So she had often told the children stories about Harlequin and Columbine and Pierrot; and when they saw what a comical, clumsy little fellow the puppy was, and how much he looked as though he wore big, baggy breeches, Henri called him "dr le Pierrot," and wee Lisa clapped her fat little hands and laughed shrilly.
