Summary "P'tit-Bonhomme" by Jules Verne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set in Ireland and follows the adventures of a young boy named P'tit-Bonhomme, who endures hardship and mistreatment at the hands of a cruel puppet master named Thornpipe. As the narrative unfolds, readers are invited to explore themes of poverty, resilience, and the innocence of childhood amidst dire circumstances. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to the desolate landscape of Connaught, Ireland, where the protagonist, P'tit-Bonhomme, finds himself under the oppressive control of Thornpipe, who exploits him as a performer in his puppet show. The opening depicts the stark contrast between the beauty of the Irish scenery and the harsh realities faced by its inhabitants, particularly the impoverished children. P'tit-Bonhomme's early experiences bring forth his longing for kindness and compassion, setting the stage for his eventual encounter with the people of Westport, where his fate will begin to take a turn as he is discovered and rescued from his dire situation.
