Ambiguous Time Period | |
| Crictor / int_7eb2bc15 | comment |
Ambiguous Time Period: The work was first published in 1958, but the time period is not specified. The style of dress favored by Madame Bodot and all the background characters (long dresses with high collars, sailor suits for the children, everyone wears a hat while outdoors) resembles the 1900's - 1910's. The copious use of gas lamps throughout the story also indicates late 1800's or early 1900's. Early automobiles and a toy pickup truck appear in the story. Crictor climbs a utility pole to rescue a kite for a pair of children (though whether the utility pole holds telegraph wires or electrical wires is another question). And Crictor helps a pack of boy scouts learn to tie knots, though scouting didn't begin in France until 1911. | |

All Animals Are Dogs | |

All Animals Are Dogs: Crictor behaves much the same way a dog would — he even enjoys going on walks, during which Madame Bodot leads him around on a leash. | |
