"Billy Whiskers in France" by Frances Trego Montgomery is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story is an adventure following Billy Whiskers, a clever and resourceful goat, who is serving as a mascot for an American regiment during World War I. As he grapples with feelings of homesickness and the desire to return to his family across the ocean, he embarks on a perilous journey through France, encountering various friends and challenges along the way. The beginning of the story sets up Billy's longing for home as he feels restless in an American camp in France. He considers sneaking out to return to his beloved Nannie, despite the dangers posed by the war. With a mix of determination and cleverness, Billy successfully escapes the camp, narrowly avoiding capture by a soldier who recognizes him. He sets off on his journey, navigating through creeks and forests, all the while hopeful about reuniting with his family. Along the way, he reflects on adventures and encounters that have shaped his experiences both in the war and during his travels. The opening chapters establish a whimsical yet poignant narrative that blends humor with the themes of friendship and resilience in the face of adversity.
