When Madeline falls into the river Seine and nearly drowns, a courageous canine comes to her rescue. Now Genevieve the dog is Madeline's cherished pet, and the envy of all the other girls. What can be done when there's just not enough hound to go around?

Pepito, the son of the Spanish Ambassador, invites Madeline and her fellow students to a Gypsy carnival. However, in the chaos caused by a sudden rainstorm, Miss Clavel and the other girls lose sight of Madeline and Pepito, who are unintentionally left behind on the Ferris wheel. The two children find themselves guests of the gypsies, and soon wind up part of the carnival themselves.

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. In this next adventure, Madeline has a new neighbor who she does not like so much. Can she and Pepito ever get along?

Короткометражный мультфильм, основанный на серии детских книг Людвига Бемельманса. В 1935 году американский писатель женился на Мадлен Фрейнд, а спустя четыре года вышла его первая книга «Мадлен» о беспечной маленькой парижанке, обеспечившая автору широкую известность. У первой истории шесть продолжений. Сюжет одного из эпизодов многосерийного издания лег в основу этого мультфильма. Юная Мадлен воспитывается в пансионате для девочек. Она растет ровесниц — похожих на нее, как две капли воды хорошеньких девчонок, учится хорошим манерам, танцует и постигает грамоту. Но все-таки Мадлен отличается от своих подруг, начиная с того, что она не боится мышей и даже тигров.

Johnny Riggs, a con man on the lam, finds himself in a Latin-American country named Patria. There, he overhears a convent-bred rich girl praying to her guardian angel for help in managing her tangled business affairs. Riggs decides to materialize as the girl's "angel", gains her unquestioning confidence, and helps himself to the deluded girl's millions. Just as he and his partner are about to flee Patria with their booty, Riggs realizes he has fallen in love with the girl and returns the money, together with a note that is part confession and part love letter. But the larcenous duo's escape from Patria turns out to be more difficult than they could ever have imagined.
