Pietje Puk wordt boswachter by Henri Arnoldus

Why read the book?

When Pietje Puk becomes a forester, the trees and the open fields are his new round. With his usual good cheer he takes to the woods, ready to learn the work and to greet every creature he meets.

Keteldorp is never far away, and the familiar faces of the village look on as Pietje finds his feet among the pines. It is a light, kindly tale of a townsman at home in the green.

Favourite quote

What I Loved

The gentle humour of a postman lost among the leaves is a joy. The everyday village world meets the quiet of the woods, and Pietje's optimism shines through, brought to life in Carol Voges's warm, busy pictures.

Key Takeaway

A willing heart can make a home of any new place.

Note

This book is only available in Dutch
