Once upon a time in the whimsical world of folklore, Poucet, also known as Hop-o-My-Thumb, embarked on thrilling adventures with Baron Munchausen, as depicted in Gustave Dore's engravings for 'Voyage to the Moon' and 'Hop-o-My-Thumb.' From climbing trees to outwitting ogres at their dwellings, Poucet's small size belied his courage and resourcefulness. Yet, even in the modern world, his spirit lives on, as seen in a playful Peugeot advertisement featuring a miniature car. So, let us celebrate the bravery and resilience of this beloved folktale character, whether he's hopping through the pages of a storybook or cruising down the highway in a tiny but mighty vehicle.
