A year after Pip and Squeak were created Wilfred joined them. Squeak’s origins are a bit more distant since she hatched as an egg in the coast of South Africa and later ended in the London Zoological Gardens where Uncle Dick heard her speak to a child. Pip was a mongrel dog who was found on the Thames Embankment and sent to a dog’s home where he was bougth for half a crown by Uncle Dick. I’ll get back to him in a second! Pip and Squeak were first presented to the public on May 1919 in the childrens’ section of the Daily Mirror. As I started to read full stories, I realized that I was captivated by the antics of these three characters and the narration of Uncle Dick. There was something magical about the way the characters were drawn that immediately appealed to my inner child.
