Plot
In the main tale, Madeline's great-grandfather dies, and he ends up leaving her a sizable inheritance. Madeline and her schoolmates, under the supervision of their teacher, Miss Clavel, go to America and have a wonderful vacation. It turns out that, much to Madeline's disappointment, she can't claim the inheritance her great-grandfather left for her until she is an adult. While Madeline, her classmates and their teacher ultimately return to Paris, Madeline vows to eventually return to America.
