Patsy  and the Pup

Written and Illustrated by Hilda van Stockum


From the Preface to the Boissevain Books edition by Elisabeth Marlin:


A sweet puppy follows Patsy home one day, but Mother says she has to take it back to its owner. The mischievous pup is in no hurry to go home and drags Patsy into one hair-raising adventure after another on the way. The story is told with pace and humor and the pictures add amusing details for children to discover for themselves. This is a story that parents and children from two to six will enjoy reading together, over and over again.
