Four of Ouida’s stories for young readers are gathered here. In the title story the orphan Nello and his great Flemish dog Patrasche haul milk near Antwerp while Nello dreams of the Rubens paintings in the cathedral. In ‘The Nürnberg Stove’ a Tyrolean boy hides inside the beloved porcelain stove his family has sold, and two shorter tales follow.
