Madeline and the Gypsies

Madeline and Pepito have run off to join the carnival with a band of traveling gypsies. At first they're having the time of their lives, but then they get homesick. Leave it to clever Miss Clavel to find Madeline and Pepito and bring them home. Full color. In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines lived twelve little girls in two straight lines the smallest one was Madeline.

Nothing frightens Madeline--not 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. Join Madeline in another adventure when she and Pepito run off to join the carnival with a band of traveling gypsies
