  Louis Pergaud - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Louis Pergaud (January 22, 1882 – April 8, 1915) was a French writer and soldier, whose principal works were known as "Animal Stories" due to their rooting in the flora and fauna of the Franche-Comté.
On 7 April 1915, Pergaud's regiment launched an attack on German lines, in which Pergaud was shot and wounded, falling into barbed wire, where he was trapped.
It was there, on the morning of the 8 April, that Pergaud was killed with many of his compatriots in a French artillery barrage which destroyed the hospital.

Originally released as La Guerre des Boutons, this French social satire was adapted from the 1912 novel by Louis Pergaud.
Breaking up the monotony of the nonstop feuding is the behavior of the local children, who suddenly and mysteriously begin to chant the nonsense word "gadoube." Somehow this development escalates into a full-scale "war" between the kids and the grownups, with the buttons on their clothes serving as the spoils of battle!
The original Pergaud novel would be refilmed as The War of the Buttons in 1962 and 1994, the latter film set in Ireland.

 boys clothing in French literature: La guerre des boutons
I'm not sure to what extent the boys' clothing is described in the book, but you would assume that is necessary given the importance of the buttons.
The movie was made by Louis Malle and is very descriptive of French kids and a result French boys' clothing is extensively illustrated, including the smocks that were still commonly worn in the years in which the book was set.
The 1961 movie based on the book was made by Louis Malle and is very descriptive of French kids and a result French boys' clothing is extensively illustrated, including the smocks that were still commonly worn in the years in which the book was set.

Some time later, Geronimo and Fergus meet again in a reformatory where they've been sent for punishment, and they resume their fighting, this time playfully, with pillows.
Yves Robert's 1962 film, based on the classic 1911 novel by Louis Pergaud (which was also filmed in 1938 as GENERALS WITHOUT BUTTONS in France), was a minor, sincere low-budget effort which received some cultish art-house success in the US.
This new edition is a concise, mirror-image remake, although the screenplay by Colin Welland (YANKS, CHARIOTS OF FIRE) pretty much eradicates the first film's quietly effective anti-war stance, as well some of its charming innocence.
