 ORDER

When writing this book I wanted to leave to posterity
the car adventure engaged by my pet dog Barry
the first time he travelled to Belgium.
Barry had been born in Portugal
but we were taking him that day to live with us in Belgium.

This book also tells
the tender love story of Barry's parents;
the extraordinary story of a wild greenfinch;
that of a dog who loved figs; and many others.
In a word, it is an entertaining account of real events
with some of my pets.

The idea of these stories came to my mind
one day at Christmas time,
and it is the accomplishment of my great affection
for animals ... and CHILDREN.

I took an enormous pleasure in writting this book
and I sincerely hope you will enjoy as much reading it.
Its speech is spontaneous as well as amusing.

 
 

Enjoy an excerpt of the story:

"(...) Barry a remarqué que le collier n'était pas très serré, il a donc tiré la laisse de toutes ses forces et... le voilà libre à nouveau.

Eduardo et Gustavo - ses jeunes maîtres - ont couru après lui. Barry courait vite et, tout à coup, au bout de ce chemin de terre battue, c'était de nouveau la route. Il n'a pas hésité, il a traversé malgré l'énorme mouvement de voitures et camions.

Il fallait punir ses maîtres de l'avoir tenu en laisse. Il fallait qu'ils se rendent compte qu'ils allaient le perdre, pour comprendre à quel point ils aimaient leur chien et se fassent la promesse de ne plus l'emprisonner au bout d'une chaîne!

Hélas, c'était lui, Barry, qui venait de perdre ses maîtres, il ne les voyait plus!

Il fallait faire quelque chose, revenir en arrière, les rejoindre au plus vite. C'est ce que Barry a fait, mais en vain: ils n'étaient plus là, ils étaient partis! Partis sans lui! (...)"
