that was covered with vines
lived twelve little girls
in two straight lines

Nothing frightens Madelinenot tigers, not even mice. With its endearing, courageous heroine, cheerful humor, and wonderful, whimsical drawings of Paris, the Madeline stories are true classics that continue to charm readers even after 75 years
When Madeline falls into the river Seine and nearly drowns, a courageous canine comes to her rescue. Now Genevieve the dog is Madelines cherished pet, and the envy of all the other girls. What can be done when theres just not enough hound to go around?
