This cd-rom tells the same stories as the book but we used
the wide possibilities offered by present-day multimedia
to include other features.

When writing it 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:

"(...) O Barry tinha reparado que a coleira não estava muito apertada, decidiu pois puxar pela trela com toda a força e... ei-lo livre de novo!

O Eduardo e o Gustavo - os seus jovens donos - correram atás dele. Mas o Barry corria depressa e, de repente, no fim desse caminho de terra batida, era de novo a estrada. Não hesitou, e atravessou, apesar do enorme movimento de carros e camiões!

Era preciso castigar os seus donos por lhe terem posto uma trela. Eles deviam aperceber-se de que o iam perder, para compreenderem a que ponto gostavam do seu cão e lhe fizessem a promessa de que nunca mais o prenderiam com uma trela!

Infelizmente, era ele, Barry, que acabava de perder os seus donos. Já não os via!

Era preciso fazer qualquer coisa, voltar para trás, ir ter com eles o mais depressa possível!

Foi o que o Barry fez, mas em vão: eles já lá não estavam. Tinham-se ido embora! E sem ele! (...)"
