Pietje Puk op jacht by Henri Arnoldus

Why read the book?

Pietje Puk goes hunting, and as ever he sets out with a spring in his step and a song on his lips. The fields and woods around Keteldorp make a fine playground for a postman trying something new.

The mayor, the policeman and the rest of the village are sure to follow Pietje's doings with interest. It is a simple, sunny tale of a cheerful man and the great outdoors.

Favourite quote

What I Loved

There is gentle fun in a soft-hearted postman on a hunt, more keen to make friends than to catch anything. The everyday village world, the open air and Pietje's good cheer carry the day, with Carol Voges's lively drawings adding warmth.

Key Takeaway

Kindness counts for more than any catch.

Note

This book is only available in Dutch
