In summer and in winter, he carries the milk along the familiar roads. But Patrasche’s kindness extends beyond his work. When some of the people in the village are in need, he helps bring them food or fuel. His strength becomes a quiet blessing to those around him. Meanwhile, Jehan Daas grows very ill and must remain at home. Nello continues the work with Patrasche, carrying on as best he can. This part of the story shows us the simple goodness of Patrasche—and how a once-abandoned dog has become a loyal and valuable part of a small community.
