Description
Rumer Godden, in her history of the Pekingese dog, quotes from the legend of the lion who fell in love with a butterfly, telling us the result of this mating were the Pekingese dogs, who ‘ever afterwards have to be as brave as lions and as dainty as butterflies’.
In this book, dedicated to Rumer Godden, Valerie Miles and Norma Procter have captured in line, color and verse, a living history of a Snuffle of Pekes, who, perhaps, represent the characteristics of their breed. Through the pages of this book, you will meet several of the delightful Pekingese who populate these little stories in text and in wonderful drawings by the authors!
Note: At the top of the book is a small water mark which the picture does not depict.
