Pietje Puk gaat varen by Henri Arnoldus

Pietje Puk gaat varen book cover

Why read the book?

Pietje Puk goes sailing, trading his post bag for an oar and the open water. With his usual good cheer he sets off afloat, ready for whatever the river or the sea may bring.

The familiar village of Keteldorp is his home port, and its friendly faces wait for his return. It is a light, easy tale of a postman finding his sea legs.

Favourite quote

Anchors away! A fine day for a sail and a song.

Pietje Puk

What I Loved

The gentle humour of a landlubber postman afloat is a treat. The everyday village world meets the lap of the water, and Pietje's good cheer keeps the boat steady, brought to life by Carol Voges's cheerful illustrations.

Key Takeaway

Set off with a glad heart and the day will go well.

Note

This book is only available in Dutch
