"The adventures of Little Pierre are based on the stories of Poucet or Ti-Poucet (Little Tom Thumb; Thumbling)"--Author's note.
A very tiny but clever boy outwits his older brothers, an ogre, an alligator, and a giant catfish to rescue a rich man's daughter in this Cajun version of a French fairy tale.
Contents: Petit Poucet.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
great folk tale
submitted by ferdoble on August 2, 2011, 1:09pm
this was a cleverly put together folk tale that was worth every minute. The Illustrations are so good that you could almost show it to any age child, but I would probably hold off till age 4 or 5.
I was totally entertained and captivated by this story.
