Madeline (book series)
Book series by Ludwig Bemelmans
Madeline is a book series, part of the Madeline media franchise, originally created by Ludwig Bemelmans. The series follows the daily adventures of Madeline, a seven-year-old girl attending a boarding school in Paris with eleven other girls, under the care of their teacher, Miss Clavel.
The first book was published in 1939, and proved to be a success, so Bemelmans wrote many sequels in the 1940s and 1950s. The series continued, written by Bemelmans' grandson John Bemelmans Marciano. As of 1998, the series had sold over 15 million copies worldwide.[1] Since then, the books have also been made into a film, a short film, and an animated series.[2][3]
Series summary
Each book in the series begins with the rhyme:
In an old house in Paris
That was covered in vines
Lived twelve little girls
In two straight lines.
Madeline is the smallest yet bravest of the twelve girls at the boa
