Un bon petit diable

...A boy (Paul Courtois) of about nine lives with an elderly woman (his grandmother?) who is quick to punish and feels the only proper way to do so is with a cane on the buttocks. Not overly fond of sore buns, the tyke deceives the woman in a number of ways to lessen or avoid such discipline. When she catches on, he is sent to an orphanage where the guardians are also quick to spank. Might our little hero have a plan to put an end to the brutality?.. - CVMC
