 Review: The Hundred and One Dalmatians by Dodie Smith
Still, the book adds detail as books do: Pongo's mate is a dog named Missis (more on that later), Perdita is a third adult dalmatian rescued by the Dearlys, the 101st dalmatian is part of Perdita's story, and a bit more happens around the edges and at either end of the puppy rescue.
Within the first few pages, Smith starts with one of the grating affectations of a certain type of pet lovers: the conceit that the humans are actually the pets of the animals.
Pongo and Missis are concerned with posture and stance appropriate to a pure-breed, showable dalmatian, and in mentions of kind treatment of mixed-breed or "defective" dogs, there's a definite smell of the self-righteously "kind" treatment of the upper classes towards their inferiors.

Visually, One-Hundred-and-One Dalmatians shares some similarities with the stylized angles of Sleeping Beauty, though it replaces lush details and backgrounds with beautiful color patches overlaid with ink-lines.
Of course, One-Hundred-and-One Dalmatians maintains a perfect balance between humor and pathos, but its rich humor is one of its trademark elements.
Despite these similarities with other films to follow it, at its heart, One-Hundred-and-One Dalmatians is truly part of the Second Golden Age because, not only is it another perfect film, it is a perfect film with a strong plot, completely fresh characters, and fresh visual concepts.
