Explore "Rudy and Babette" by Hans Christian Andersen on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Rudy was now a boy of eight. His uncle, who lived in the Rhone valley at the other side of the mountains, wished him to come to him, and learn how to make his way in the world; his grandfather approved of this, and let him go.
Rudy therefore said good-by. He had to take leave of others beside his grandfather; and the first of these was his old dog, Ajola.
