<div>==Fictional locations==<br />
This section is concerned with all the locations from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] and the [[Books|books]]. Below is a list of parts of the fictional world, mostly as it relates to the real world, which the story is based on. Not all parts of the world have a named equivalent within the story. Because of that, real-world geographical terms are used where necessary to describe regions without an established in-universe name.<br />
<br />
===Europe===<br />
This continent is never given a name in the series, but it contains all the countries based on real-life [[wikipedia:Europe|European]] countries. <br />
====Groot Waterland====<br />
:::''(lit. "Great Waterland")''<br />
:::''For more information, check the [[Groot Waterland|main article]]''<br />
::This country is based on [[wikipedia:The Netherlands|the Netherlands]].<ref name="Ep50">{{CiteAJKep|JA|50}} ''A brief shot of where the [[De Vliegende Molen|Flying Mill]] is going to land clearly shows [[wikipedia:The Netherlands|the Netherlands]].''</ref> This country is home to most of the protagonists of the animated series. It contains [[Polderstad]], the [[King's castle]] and [[Waterslag]] among other places.<br />
<br />
====Breed Rietland====<br />
:::''(lit. "Wide Reedland")''<br />
:::''For more information, check the [[Breed Rietland|main article]]''<br />
::This country is likely based on [[wikipedia:Germany|Germany]]. This assumption is based on the geographical location in the series, [[Herman van Veen]]'s connection to Germany. Breed Rietland is the country [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] and [[Dolf de Kraai]] were born in.<ref name="Ep1">{{CiteAJKep|JA|1}} ''As stated in the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1#Production|episode outlines for this episode]].''</ref><ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Pages 86 and 87.</ref><br />
<br />
====Morena====<br />
:::''For more information, check the [[Morena|main article]]''<br />
::This location is likely based on [[wikipedia:Monaco|Monaco]]. The city depicted in [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 50|episode 50]] is likely called [[Monte Carla (city)]], which is named in the [[Monte Carla (song)|song with the same name]].<ref name="Ep50a">{{CiteAJKep|JA|50}}</ref><br />
<br />
====France====<br />
::The song [[Monte Carla (song)|Monte Carla]] clarifies that the language they speak in the city of [[Monte Carla (city)|Monte Carla]] is Frands<ref group="note">'Frands' is an intentional mispronunciation of the Dutch word 'Frans', which in this case refers to the French language.</ref> inferring that there is a France equivalence in this world. (POSSIBLY THIS ENTRY WILL BE REPLACED WITH HET LAND VAN CHAMPAGNE)<br />
<br />
====Alfred's holiday country====<br />

<div>==Fictional locations==<br />
This section is concerned with all the locations from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] and the [[Books|books]]. Below is a list of parts of the fictional world, mostly as it relates to the real world, which the story is based on. Not all parts of the world have a named equivalent within the story. Because of that, real-world geographical terms are used where necessary to describe regions without an established in-universe name.<br />
<br />
===Europe===<br />
This continent is never given a name in the series, but it contains all the countries based on real-life [[wikipedia:Europe|European]] countries. <br />

:::''For more information, check the [[Breed Rietland|main article]]''<br />
::This country is likely based on [[wikipedia:Germany|Germany]]. This assumption is based on the geographical location in the series, [[Herman van Veen]]'s connection to Germany. Breed Rietland is the country [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] and [[Dolf de Kraai]] were born in.<ref name="Ep1">{{CiteAJKep|JA|1}} ''As stated in the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1#Production|episode outlines for this episode]].''</ref><ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Pages 86 and 87.</ref><br />
<br />
====Morena====<br />

<br />
====France====<br />
::The song [[Monte Carla (song)|Monte Carla]] clarifies that the language they speak in the city of [[Monte Carla (city)|Monte Carla]] is Frands<ref group="note">'Frands' is an intentional mispronunciation of the Dutch word 'Frans', which in this case refers to the French language.</ref> inferring that there is a France equivalence in this world. (POSSIBLY THIS ENTRY WILL BE REPLACED WITH HET LAND VAN CHAMPAGNE)<br />
<br />
====Alfred's holiday country====<br />
:::''For more information, check the [[Alfred's holiday country|main article]]''<br />

<br />
====Jippon====<br />
:::''For more information, check the [[Jippon|main article]]''<br />
::Jippon is the country visited by [[Professor Paljas von Pinguïn]] and [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] when the professor tries to sell his [[De Vliegende Molen|Flying Mill]]-space ship design.

<div>==Fictional locations==<br />
This section is concerned with all the locations from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] and the [[Books|books]]. Below is a list of parts of the fictional world, mostly as it relates to the real world, which the story is based on. Not all parts of the world have a named equivalent within the story. Because of that, real-world geographical terms are used where necessary to describe regions without an established in-universe name.<br />
<br />
===Europe===<br />
This continent is never given a name in the series, but it contains all the countries based on real-life [[wikipedia:Europe|European]] countries. <br />

Breed Rietland is the country [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] and [[Dolf de Kraai]] were born in.<ref name="Ep1">{{CiteAJKep|JA|1}} ''As stated in the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1#Production|episode outlines for this episode]].''</ref><ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Pages 86 and 87.</ref><br />

<br />
====France====<br />
::The song [[Monte Carla (song)|Monte Carla]] clarifies that the language they speak in the city of [[Monte Carla (city)|Monte Carla]] is Frands<ref group="note">'Frands' is an intentional mispronunciation of the Dutch word 'Frans', which in this case refers to the French language.</ref> inferring that there is a France equivalence in this world. <br />
<br />

===Asia===<br />
This continent is never given a name in the series, but it contains all the countries based on real-life [[wikipedia:Asia|Asian]] countries. <br />

<br />
::The inclusion of Thuisland on this continent is not based on mentions in the [[Alfred J.

::Rollaria is described as the richest country in the world. Its currency is the roller, which is the principal currency used by countries for international payments.

<div>==Fictional locations==<br />
This section is concerned with all the locations from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] and the [[Books|books]]. Below is a list of parts of the fictional world, mostly as it relates to the real world, which the story is based on. Not all parts of the world have a named equivalent within the story.

<br />
===Europe===<br />

<br />
====France====<br />
::The song [[Monte Carla (song)|Monte Carla]] clarifies that the language they speak in the city of [[Monte Carla (city)|Monte Carla]] is Frands<ref group="note">'Frands' is an intentional mispronunciation of the Dutch word 'Frans', which in this case refers to the French language.</ref> inferring that there is a France equivalence in this world. <br />

Below is a list of parts of the fictional world, mostly as it relates to the real world, which the story is based on. Not all parts of the world have a named equivalent within the story.

<br />
'''De Droom van Alfred Jodocus Kwak''' (lit. ''''Alfred Jodocus Kwak's Dream'''') is a book written by [[Herman van Veen]] and [[Hanneke Holzhaus]] about [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] coming to grasp with what happened to his parents [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]] and [[Anna van de Polder]]. It tells the story of [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 1|episodes 1]], [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 2|2]], [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 4|4]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 5|5]] through flashback and retellings through [[Henk de Mol]] and the story of [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 12|episode 12]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 13|13]] as it's happening in the present of the narrative. <br />
<br />
Several characters unnamed in the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] get named for the first time in this story. <br />
<br />
==Story==<br />
<br />
===Summary===<br />
<br />
====De grote vakantie====<br />
:''(lit. "The summer holiday")''<br />
[[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] has just finished his exams and passed with flying colors and can now enjoy his summer break. However he can't enjoy it as he's feeling depressed. He promised [[Henk de Mol]], his adoptive father, to play their weekly [[Chess|chess]] game, but has no motivation to play. Instead he does have motivation to talk to Henk in a ''Goed Gesprek'' (lit. "Good Talk"), specifically because he has realized that he doesn't remember his parents anymore. He's always accepted Henk to be his father, but as a mole that doesn't make sense. <br />
<br />
Having a goal makes him enthusiastic about life again and he's more easily able to reflect on his somber morning. He walks past [[Inspecteur Holmes de Hond|inspecteur Holmes de Hond]] and the [[Drieling Mus|sparrow triplets]] feeling good about himself again. That is until he runs into [[Dolf de Kraai]]. Internally he bigs himself up not to fall prey to Dolf's taunts, but as Dolf keeps ironically congratulating him on acing his exams, Alfred's mood flips once more. Dolf also brings up Henk as his father and proclaims that he will go into politics instead of studying.<br />
<br />
====Amanda====<br />
Alfred is depressed once more and trudges along the [[Polderstad#Polderweg|Polderweg]] until [[Amanda de Vlinder]], the aging butterfly, flies down and lands on his shoulder. She shares with him her unique outlook on life, how nothing really matters and therefore it's easy to live carefree. At first Alfred follows along with her logic, but soon he finds herself annoyed with this line of thinking and instead asks her to tell Henk that he will be a little later. <br />
<br />
Alfred lays down in the meadows, feeling very tired, and takes a nap. He dreams about a day long ago when he was still a child and living at [[Henk's mine house]]. Because it's snowing Henk gives Alfred some jeans with suspenders that look just like the clothing Henk usually wears. When Henk hugs Alfred goodbye they hear the sound of Dolf teasing him. He's flanked by [[Hannes Snater|Hannes]] and [[Wannes Snater|Wannes Ganzenbord]] who repeat what Dolf says.<br />
<br />
Alfred wakes up shortly as Amanda tells him that she has relayed the message. As quickly as he woke up he falls asleep again and continues his dream about a young Dolf teasing him and his father. Lucky for him school is about to start.<br />
<br />
====De troubadour====<br />
:''(lit. "The troubadour")'' <br />
[[Meester Bas Buldog]] awaits his students at the doorway to the [[Polderstad#School|school]]. He pets them all individually when they enter. As he thinks about retiring soon Alfred, and then a little later Dolf, Wannes and Hannes come in. Meester Bas starts teaching about the middle ages, telling the kids about a [[Polderstad]] from [[Polderstad#Middle ages|800 years ago]], about how the market place was a social meeting place. As Meester Bas talks about minstrels and troubadours Alfred slowly falls asleep in his dream and has another dream. He hears the minstrel [[Kukuleku]] sing a song and then Alfred asks him for his autograph. Kukeleku is flummoxed by the balpoint pen and Alfred's mention of a ''schoolplein''<ref group="note">''Schoolplein'' translates to "School yard", but in a very literal sense it translates to "School square".</ref> and wonders where this square is so he can capitalize on it. The minstrel signs Alfred's schoolbook, but as he does Alfred is awoken by Meester Bas who scolds him for falling asleep. In a corner Dolf is laughing on the inside as Alfred is lectured.<br />
<br />
====Schoensmeer====<br />
:''(lit. "Shoe polish")''<br />
Meester Bas continues his lesson about the middle ages and talks about how people frowned upon others behaving slightly differently than the norm. They would be ostracized, especially women who broke generally accepted social norms, and burnt at the stake. Their ashes would be taken to [[The well|the well]] on the [[Polderstad#Brede Buitenweg|Brede Buitenweg]] and thrown into it. After class Dolf starts teasing Alfred about how him having a mole father would be enough for him to be burnt at the stake. This makes Alfred livid and he almost strangles Dolf, but when he comes to his senses he sees that Dolf's beak has turned yellow and Alfred has black grime on his hands. Dolf is so embarrassed at Alfred finding out his beak is yellow and he runs off, shouting he's going to fly himself into the [[De Stompe Toren|Stompe toren]]. Alfred tries to follows, desperate to prevent him from killing himself.<br />
<br />
====In de put====<br />
:''(lit. "In the well")''<br />
Alfred finds Dolf near the well, using a brush to put [[Shoe polish|shoe polish]] on his beak. Alfred appraoches him, but in doing so startles Dolf and he falls down the well, breaking his wing. Alfred bravely tries to get him out of there by climbing down the rope that was originally attached to a bucket. However, the rope was too old and brittle to carry Alfred's weight and he plummets onto Dolf. Alfred makes a [[wikipedia:Sling (medical)|sling]] for Dolf's wing. Alfred says their parents will come and look for them, but Dolf isn't so sure. <br />
<br />
====De geest die geen rust kan vinden====<br />
:''(lit. "The spirit that can't find peace")''<br />
Dolf confesses to Alfred that [[Miriam Merel|his mother]] was a [[:Category:Thrush Character|thrush]] and not a [[:Category:Crow Character|crow]], giving him a yellow beak. Alfred tries to convince him that it's not a big deal, but Dolf doubles down and tells him that just like in the middle ages Alfred also needs to be scared of being burnt at the stake, just like the witches from Meester Bas' lecture. Then the two hear a scary echo-y voice calling Alfred.<br />
<br />
====Een Goed Gesprek====<br />
:''(lit. "A Good Talk")''<br />
Alfred is woken up by Henk who had looked for him. He's there to pick him up. Alfred tells him about his dream of him and Dolf being stuck down the well and Henk recalls how he found them and called out. And how Dolf and Alfred had mistaken his voice for a witch. Luckily it all worked out in the end. <br />
<br />
Having arrived at Henk's mine house Alfred declines the game of chess and instead demands Henk tell him where he came from. At first Henk is reluctant to start a conversation about that and tries to change the subject, but when Alfred insist he starts to tell about his old friend [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]]. <br />
<br />
Johan and he were floating in Johan's clog boat through the [[Plaspoelpolder]] in [[Breed Rietland]], when they heard the song of a female [[:Category:Duck Character|duck]]. Henk took it upon himself to introduce Johan to the source of the singing, namely [[Anna van de Polder]]. Falling completely in love Johan spent the rest of the day and part of the night working on a [[Nog Nooit|song]]. Just as he was about to find Anna again and sing his song, when he saw [[Henri Dropshot]] and [[Johnny Hollyday]] fighting over her. He took his chance and the interaction resulted in a relationship that bloomed. They were wed shortly after, Henk serving as Johan's [[wikipedia:Groomsman#Best_man|best man]] and Amanda de Vlinder as Anna's [[wikipedia:Bridesmaid|bridesmaid]]. <br />
<br />
Alfred asks him if he means Amanda who he had spoken to today, and Henk says that the Amanda from the wedding is current Amanda's great-great-great-great-grandmother. Henk continues to tell Alfred that Johan and Anna laid 7 eggs and suddenly Alfred realizes he's not from Groot Waterland, but from Breed Rietland. Alfred starts crying saying that Dolf ''is'' from [[Groot Waterland]] and he isn't, which prompts Henk to correct him; Dolf was ''also'' born in Breed Rietland. <br />
<br />
====Geboren====<br />
:''(lit. "Born")''<br />
Henk tells about Dolf's father [[Schor de Kraai]], whom Johan was regularly arguing with. According to Henk, Schor already almost didn't recognize Dolf as he was having memory problems, especially after the death of his wife [[Miriam Merel]]. Schor and Miriam also made an unannounced maternity visit at Johan and Anna's nest. Anna had taken a break, leaving Johan to defend the quality of the eggs against Schor, especially the one that Alfred would be born out of. Johan grabbed it and given it to Henk for safe keeping. At right that moment Alfred had hatched in front of Henk. Henk told the parents that the duckling reminded him of his own grandfather, [[Alfred de Mol]] and Johan and Anna decide to name their firstborn after him. [[Alfred's brothers and sisters]] hatched the next day.<br />
<br />
====Het pretpark====<br />
:''(lit. "The amusement park")''<br />
The day after Alfred's birth his [[Alfred's brothers and sisters|brothers and sisters]] hatched. Henk recalls the origin of all the names of his siblings; usually named after other family members or friends. Henk also tells about a moment in which Alfred was almost killed by a [[wikipedia:Steamroller|steamroller]] after wandering off. Alfred compares it to Anna's brother [[Jan van de Polder]] who was struck by a car before Anna and Johan had met; a story Henk had told a little earlier. <br />
<br />
Then the ground starts shaking and Henk and the family are lifted by an enormous [[wikipedia:Bulldozer|bulldozer]]. [[Beton Maatschappij|Construction company Bart Bever Beton B.V.]] was constructing a huge amusement park as funded by [[Kaspar Rokodil]]<ref group="note">This is inconsistent with the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]], in the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|original episode]] this role belongs to [[Alfons Rokodil]]. This is apparent from a different character design with a different name in the [[Character- and Color-Designs for Alfred J. Kwak]] design book and the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1#Production|outlines written by [[Herman van Veen]] for the first episode.</ref> and organized by [[Olaf Nijlpaard]]. Henk and Johan do their best to convince the entrepeneurs to cease destroying the [[Plaspoelpolder]], but to no avail. Anna also wants to leave as soon as possible, but remains quiet, being overwhelmed.<br />

<br />
===References===<br />
* Several times [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] says to himself that he was the only kid in the third year of primary school to be able to swim to the other side of the big river without touching anything or somersault in the water, something that's also said in the introduction of the character in the [[Herman van Veen zingt en vertelt de muziekfabel van Alfred Jodocus Kwak|original stage play]].<ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 12''</ref><ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 31''</ref> Later on when [[Henk de Mol]] tells Alfred about his parents, he says that [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]] predicted he would be able to swim to the other side of the big river with his eyes clothes in the fourth year of primary school. Alfred then corrects him with "Third year!".<ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 98''</ref> <br />
* When Alfred encounters [[Dolf de Kraai]] he thinks to himself that he wants to avoid a ''kemphanengevecht'', meaning a fight between two [[wikipedia:Ruff|ruff birds]], which also has a double meaning of a brawl between two people who are frequently in conflict or rivalry. [[Henri Dropshot]] and [[Johnny Hollyday]] who are characters that are introduced later and receive names for the first time in this book are also referenced as '''kemphanen'' in their character sheet and the [[Alfred J.

* Alfred tells [[Amanda de Vlinder]] to tell [[Henk de Mol]] he will be ''een druppel later'' (lit. "a drop later")<ref group="note">A drop of water.</ref>. This is a reference to one of the lines of the opening song [[Spetter Pieter Pater]].<br />
* Part of slogans that [[Dolf de Kraai]] brainstorms for his future [[Nationale Kraaienpartij]] is ''Kra Dolf'', which is a combination of the German name of his character and the Dutch name and also makes the reference of his character to the name [[Adolf Hitler]] even clearer.<ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 176''</ref><br />

===Release===<br />
A [[Article Herman van Veen in rest seizoen nog heel even op eigen bodem|news article]] in the [[wikipedia:Nieuwsblad van het Noorden|Nieuwsblad van het Noorden]], on the 20th of July 1991, mentioned the release of this book, however it mistakes [[Hanneke Holzhaus]] as the illustrator of the book, instead of the co-writer.<br />
<br />
===Book contents===<br />
The book opens with a foreword from [[Herman van Veen]].<br />
<blockquote><br />
{|<br />
|'''Original Dutch'''<br />
''Toen ik [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak|Alfred]] voor het eerst zag,''<br><br />
''woonden wij nog in dat oude huis op de dijk,''<br><br />
''vlakbij het veen.''<br><br />
''Alfred zat op een stronk, onder de olie.''<br><br />
''Kon geen vin meer verzetten.''<br><br />
''Ik heb hem toen in de teil op het aanrecht''<br><br />
''zo goed als het ging gewassen.''<br><br />
''Maar het spul was er bijna niet uit te krijgen.''<br><br />
''De hardnekkige smurrie plakte alles aan elkaar''<br><br />
''Ben er tamelijk lang mee bezig geweest''<br><br />
''en toen alle olie verwijderd was,''<br><br />
''kreeg hij een forse verkoudheid,''<br><br />
''gepaard met een naar kuchje.''<br><br />
''Het was vlak voor de Kerst, dus ik zei:''<br><br />
''`Je kunt de Kerstdagen wel hier blijven.''<br><br />
''Er is niemand, ik ben alleen en het lijkt me wel gezellig.'''<br><br />
''Maar daar snapte hij natuurlijk niks van.''<br><br />
''Hij kon immers niet praten en ik kon niet kwaken.''<br><br />
''Kwam toen op het idee om [[Professor Paljas von Pinguïn|Professor Paljas van Pinguïn]] te bellen, een oude''<br><br />
''vriend die veel verstand van talen heeft.''<br><br />
''Hij stuurde mij per ommegaande dat boekje:''<br><br />
''`Kwak op reis een eenvoudige cursus Kwaken voor beginners`.''<br><br />
''Nou met de hulp van Alfred kon ik op de tweede Kerstdag''<br><br />
''het eerste couplet van Jinglebells al in het Kwaks zingen,''<br><br />
''met Oud en Niwu al redelijk keuvelen''<br><br />
''en tegen mijn verjaardag duidelijk schrijven, vandaar...''<br><br />
''Alfred had mij heel wat te vertellen.''<br><br />
''Zó veel dat ik het nauwelijks kon bijbenen.''<br><br />
''Heb toen [[Hanneke Holzhaus]] gebeld, waarvan Professor Paljas wist''<br><br />
''dat zij één van de weinige mensen op deze wereld is''<br><br />
''die Kwaks verstaat en kan spreken.''<br><br />
''En ik moet eerlijk zeggen: ''<br><br />
''zonder haar zou dit relaas''<br><br />
''nu niet zo gebonden en opengeslagen voor jullie liggen.''<br><br />
''Veel plezier bij het lezen en, o ja,''<br><br />
''de hartelijke groeten van Alfred en Herman van Veen.''<br />
|'''Translation'''<br />
''When I first saw [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak|Alfred]],''<br><br />
''we were still living in that old house on the dike,''<br><br />
''close to the peat bog.''<br><br />
''Alfred was sitting on a stump, covered in oil.''<br><br />
''He could no longer move a fin.''<br><br />
''So I washed him in the tub on the kitchen counter,''<br><br />
''as best I could.''<br><br />
''But the stuff was almost impossible to get out.''<br><br />
''The stubborn grime stuck everything together''<br><br />
''I spent quite a long time working on it''<br><br />
''and when all the oil had been removed,''<br><br />
''he came down with a bad cold,''<br><br />
''accompanied by an unpleasant little cough.''<br><br />
''It was just before Christmas, so I said:''<br><br />
''`You might as well stay here for Christmas.''<br> <br />
''There’s no one here, I’m alone, and it seems like it would be cozy`.''<br><br />
''But of course he understood none of that.''<br><br />
''After all, he couldn’t talk and I couldn’t quack.''<br><br />
''Then I got the idea to call [[Professor Paljas von Pinguïn|Professor Paljas van Pinguïn]], an old''<br><br />
''friend who knows a great deal about languages.''<br><br />
''He promptly sent me that little book:''<br><br />
''Quack on the Road, a Simple Quacking Course for Beginners.''<br><br />
''Well, with Alfred’s help, by the second day of Christmas''<br><br />
''I could already sing the first verse of Jingle Bells in Quack,''<br><br />
''chat reasonably well by New Year''<br><br />
''and write clearly by my birthday, hence...''<br><br />
''Alfred had quite a lot to tell me.''<br><br />
''So much that I could hardly keep up.''<br><br />
''Then I called [[Hanneke Holzhaus]], of whom Professor Paljas knew''<br><br />
''that she is one of the few people in this world''<br><br />
''who understands and can speak Quack.''<br><br />
''And I must honestly say: ''<br><br />
''without her this account''<br><br />
''would not now be lying here before you, bound and open.''<br><br />
''Enjoy reading it, and oh yes,''<br><br />
''warm regards from Alfred and Herman van Veen.''<br />
|}<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
There is also a short epigraph by [[Hanneke Holzhaus]].<br />
<blockquote><br />
{|<br />
|'''Original Dutch'''<br />
''`Elk mens is een soort dier.''<br><br />
''In ieder dier zit een soort mens.`''<br><br />
<br><br />
''Hanneke Holzhaus''<br />
|'''Translation'''<br />
''`Every human is a sort of animal.''<br><br />
''In every animal there's a sort of human.`''<br><br />
<br><br />
''Hanneke Holzhaus''<br />
<br />
|}<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The book retells several episodes ([[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|episode 1]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 2|2]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 4|4]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 5|5]]) of the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] in a dream and through a story by [[Henk de Mol]]. It then tells an alternate version of the story from [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 12|episode 12]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 13|episode 13]], this time set in summer rather than in winter. All retellings have slight deviations, never completely lining up with the original episodes.<br />
<br />
The book also takes many story elements from the 1989 book [[De wonderlijke avonturen van de eend Alfred Jodocus Kwak: Goedemorgen]], including the names of [[Alfred's brothers and sisters]] and [[Amanda de Vlinder]], but slightly deviating from it as well, giving [[Hannes Snater|Hannes]] and [[Wannes Snater|Wannes]] the surname "Ganzenbord" instead of "Snater", which was established by Goedemorgen. <br />
<br />
Most of the book is written from [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]]'s point of view, except for chapters "De troubadour", "Schoensmeer", "Met pensioen" and "De Kraaienpartij", in which [[Meester Bas Buldog]] is also the point of view character. Strangely in the first two of those chapters it's Alfred's dream we're following. It is then, perhaps, possible that the latter two of those mentioned chapters might also be part of Alfred's dream. The book title translates to "Alfred Jodocus Kwak's dream", and many plot points seem to follow a dream-logic, so this seems plausible. The book does not provide answers to this, likely on purpose. <br />
<br />
The book is full of songs, some of which are alterations of songs from the animated series. A full list can be read [[Songs from De Droom van Alfred Jodocus Kwak (book)|here]].<br />
<br />
The final page of the book shows a list of [[Herman van Veen]] written stories about [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]], including the first 15 volumes of [[De wonderlijke avonturen van Alfred J. Kwak]], with specifically [[De wonderlijke avonturen van Alfred J. Kwak: De lieve sneeuwman]] out of order, as well as [[Annet Kossen]]'s Alfred Jodocus Kwak book and the [[Wat Wijzer]] series up to [[Wat Wijzer met Alfred Jodocus Kwak: Propvol]] and including the next book called '''[[Wat Wijzer#Winnie|Winnie]]'''. Following that a short list of music books; [[Muziekboek spetter pieter pater]] and [[De Kwak-liedjes]]. Finally a short list of comics by [[Harald Siepermann]] and [[Hans Bacher]]; [[De wonderlijke avonturen van de eend Alfred Jodocus Kwak]], [[Vissen in troebel water]] and [[Professor Paljas]].<br />
<br />
===Themes===<br />
Moreso than most books written to recount the episodes from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]], [[Hanneke Holzhaus]] and [[Herman van Veen]] chose to weave a story between established stories and provide more of a cohesive and thematic whole between them. The theme of death pops up quite often, as this is the story in which the most named characters are mentioned having died; [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]], [[Anna van de Polder]], [[Alfred's brothers and sisters]]<ref name="DRO P151">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 151''</ref>, [[Jan van de Polder Junior|Jan van de Polder]] (Anna's brother)<ref name="DRO P103">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 103''</ref>, [[Miriam Merel]] (Dolf's mother)<ref name="DRO P120">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 120''</ref> and [[Amanda de Vlinder]]<ref name="DRO P155">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 155''</ref>. All of them Alfred needs to confront. First off, especially, the death of his family and finding out what happened to them is a driving force from the start of the book. Then when Alfred is finally told by Henk what has happened, it takes finding Amanda on Henk's porch for him to truly start processing his feelings. <br />
<br />
Another element of the story is family and found family. How family can both give you love and give you hate and how that forms children. [[Dolf de Kraai]] is made sympathetic by having a father that hates his existence and a mother that is not strong enough to cope. He outright rejects the compassion that Alfred gives him, and instead pivots to power, and when that doesn't work to groveling at those in power. Because [[Schor de Kraai]] needed to be better than his son, so does Dolf need to be better than anyone else. Because Schor never gave him love and the one person that did, his mother, died, he doesn't expect or want love to survive. But in the end we have a comparison between Alfred, surrounded by friends and a loving surrogate father going through pain, but surviving, and Dolf who is still friends with [[Hannes Snater|Hannes]] and [[Wannes Snater]] as if nothing has really changed since their days at school. Still isolated, still not accepting love or compassion. And for Dolf it's even worse as he starts robbing stately mansions. <br />
<br />
Dreaming is another theme that pops up regularly, also of course relating to the title of the book. The book plays with the impossibility of dreams having an effect on the real world. Is Alfred dreaming about the [[White chess queen]] or not? The same can be said for whether or not Alfred's dream influenced minstrel [[Kukeleku]]'s work. Or is everything we read from [[Meester Bas Buldog]]'s perspective — the only perspective in which we read more of Kukeleku's work — part of Alfred's dream? This might've been foreshadowed by Amanda de Vlinder's song suddenly being attributed to minstrel Kukeleku. Does that mean all scenes with him are actually part of Alfred's dream as influenced by his reality? It is left ambiguous; an impossible puzzle that doesn't have a solution.<br />
<br />
==Changes from the original==<br />
: ''This book bases its story on several episodes of the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]], specifically episodes [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|1]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 2|2]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 4|5]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 12|12]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 13|13]]. The book takes some liberties however. While some of these descrepancies can be attributed to [[Henk de Mol]] telling [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] about previous events, or Alfred's dreams contain differences to the actual events, most of these changes cannot be reconciled with the animated series' continuity.''<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|Episode 1]]===<br />
* A very clear distinction is made in the book that the events in this episode are in fact set in [[Breed Rietland]]'s [[Plaspoelpolder]], which is a distinction that the animated series doesn't necessarily make as clear, even though it is mentioned in the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1#scripts|episode 1 outlines]]. <br />
* Just like in [[De wonderlijke avonturen van de eend Alfred Jodocus Kwak: Goedemorgen]], [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]] uses his clog as a boat. <br />
* [[Rap de Kiekendief]] and [[Snel de Snoek]] do not appear in the book. Instead when Johan is confronted by [[Schor de Kraai]] and Schor picks up [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]]'s egg, Johan quickly snatches it away and gives it to [[Henk de Mol]]. Alfred then hatches in front of Henk. <br />
* [[Kaspar Rokodil]]'s name is used in every instance in the story about [[Groot Speelgoedland]] in the book, when that should in fact be [[Alfons Rokodil]].<br />
* In the book [[Miriam Merel]] is a lot more the victim of Schor's abuse, rather than joining him in his abuse of Johan. [[Anna van de Polder|Anna]] and their eggs.<br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 2|Episode 2]]===<br />
* <br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 4|Episode 4]]===<br />
* A point is made about potatoes not being sold in the [[Polderstad#Middle ages|middle ages]] in the book, that seems to be a reaction to the episode in which it is listed as one of the products sold on the market square in [[Polderstad]] during the [[wikipedia:13th century|13th century]].<ref name="Potato">{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 37''</ref><br />
* [[Meester Bas Buldog]] tells the class in the book that people were burnt for being different, specifically women. Their ash would be spread in [[The well|the well]], and their spirits might haunt the area.<ref name="Well1">{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Pages 45-47''</ref> The animated series depicts a more child-friendly story in which people that were different were banished from the city, congregated at the well, and possibly died there.<ref name="Ep4">{{CiteAJKep|JA|4}}</ref><br />
* For this and the following episode the inclusion of [[Krabnagel de Kater]] is completely omitted for the book, possibly because at the end of the book Krabnagel is given a slightly more sympathetic depiction. <br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 5|Episode 5]]===<br />
* [[Henk de Mol]] finds Alfred and [[Dolf de Kraai]] in the well and doesn't have to fend off Krabnagel de Kater, like he needs to do in the episode. Therefore there is also no moment depicted in the book where Henk ends up on a pond with thin ice. <br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 12|Episode 12]]===<br />
* This episode and the following was set during winter, but the book is set during the summer holiday after Alfred J. Kwak graduates from [[wikipedia:Middle school|middle school]].<br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 13|Episode 13]]===<br />

<br />
'''De Droom van Alfred Jodocus Kwak''' (lit. ''''Alfred Jodocus Kwak's Dream'''') is a book written by [[Herman van Veen]] and [[Hanneke Holzhaus]] about [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] coming to grasp with what happened to his parents [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]] and [[Anna van de Polder]]. It tells the story of [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 1|episodes 1]], [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 2|2]], [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 4|4]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 5|5]] through flashback and retellings through [[Henk de Mol]] and the story of [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 12|episode 12]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak episode 13|13]] as it's happening in the present of the narrative. <br />
<br />
Several characters unnamed in the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] get named for the first time in this story. <br />
<br />
==Story==<br />
<br />
===Summary===<br />
<br />
====De grote vakantie====<br />
:''(lit. "The summer holiday")''<br />
[[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] has just finished his exams and passed with flying colors and can now enjoy his summer break. However he can't enjoy it as he's feeling depressed. He promised [[Henk de Mol]], his adoptive father, to play their weekly [[Chess|chess]] game, but has no motivation to play. Instead he does have motivation to talk to Henk in a ''Goed Gesprek'' (lit. "Good Talk"), specifically because he has realized that he doesn't remember his parents anymore. He's always accepted Henk to be his father, but as a mole that doesn't make sense. <br />
<br />
Having a goal makes him enthusiastic about life again and he's more easily able to reflect on his somber morning. He walks past [[Inspecteur Holmes de Hond|inspecteur Holmes de Hond]] and the [[Drieling Mus|sparrow triplets]] feeling good about himself again. That is until he runs into [[Dolf de Kraai]]. Internally he bigs himself up not to fall prey to Dolf's taunts, but as Dolf keeps ironically congratulating him on acing his exams, Alfred's mood flips once more. Dolf also brings up Henk as his father and proclaims that he will go into politics instead of studying.<br />
<br />
====Amanda====<br />
Alfred is depressed once more and trudges along the [[Polderstad#Polderweg|Polderweg]] until [[Amanda de Vlinder]], the aging butterfly, flies down and lands on his shoulder. She shares with him her unique outlook on life, how nothing really matters and therefore it's easy to live carefree. At first Alfred follows along with her logic, but soon he finds herself annoyed with this line of thinking and instead asks her to tell Henk that he will be a little later. <br />
<br />
Alfred lays down in the meadows, feeling very tired, and takes a nap. He dreams about a day long ago when he was still a child and living at [[Henk's mine house]]. Because it's snowing Henk gives Alfred some jeans with suspenders that look just like the clothing Henk usually wears. When Henk hugs Alfred goodbye they hear the sound of Dolf teasing him. He's flanked by [[Hannes Snater|Hannes]] and [[Wannes Snater|Wannes Ganzenbord]] who repeat what Dolf says.<br />
<br />
Alfred wakes up shortly as Amanda tells him that she has relayed the message. As quickly as he woke up he falls asleep again and continues his dream about a young Dolf teasing him and his father. Lucky for him school is about to start.<br />
<br />
====De troubadour====<br />
:''(lit. "The troubadour")'' <br />
[[Meester Bas Buldog]] awaits his students at the doorway to the [[Polderstad#School|school]]. He pets them all individually when they enter. As he thinks about retiring soon Alfred, and then a little later Dolf, Wannes and Hannes come in. Meester Bas starts teaching about the middle ages, telling the kids about a [[Polderstad]] from [[Polderstad#Middle ages|800 years ago]], about how the market place was a social meeting place. As Meester Bas talks about minstrels and troubadours Alfred slowly falls asleep in his dream and has another dream. He hears the minstrel [[Kukuleku]] sing a song and then Alfred asks him for his autograph. Kukeleku is flummoxed by the balpoint pen and Alfred's mention of a ''schoolplein''<ref group="note">''Schoolplein'' translates to "School yard", but in a very literal sense it translates to "School square".</ref> and wonders where this square is so he can capitalize on it. The minstrel signs Alfred's schoolbook, but as he does Alfred is awoken by Meester Bas who scolds him for falling asleep. In a corner Dolf is laughing on the inside as Alfred is lectured.<br />
<br />
====Schoensmeer====<br />
:''(lit. "Shoe polish")''<br />
Meester Bas continues his lesson about the middle ages and talks about how people frowned upon others behaving slightly differently than the norm. They would be ostracized, especially women who broke generally accepted social norms, and burnt at the stake. Their ashes would be taken to [[The well|the well]] on the [[Polderstad#Brede Buitenweg|Brede Buitenweg]] and thrown into it. After class Dolf starts teasing Alfred about how him having a mole father would be enough for him to be burnt at the stake. This makes Alfred livid and he almost strangles Dolf, but when he comes to his senses he sees that Dolf's beak has turned yellow and Alfred has black grime on his hands. Dolf is so embarrassed at Alfred finding out his beak is yellow and he runs off, shouting he's going to fly himself into the [[De Stompe Toren|Stompe toren]]. Alfred tries to follows, desperate to prevent him from killing himself.<br />
<br />
====In de put====<br />
:''(lit. "In the well")''<br />
Alfred finds Dolf near the well, using a brush to put [[Shoe polish|shoe polish]] on his beak. Alfred appraoches him, but in doing so startles Dolf and he falls down the well, breaking his wing. Alfred bravely tries to get him out of there by climbing down the rope that was originally attached to a bucket. However, the rope was too old and brittle to carry Alfred's weight and he plummets onto Dolf. Alfred makes a [[wikipedia:Sling (medical)|sling]] for Dolf's wing. Alfred says their parents will come and look for them, but Dolf isn't so sure. <br />
<br />
====De geest die geen rust kan vinden====<br />
:''(lit. "The spirit that can't find peace")''<br />
Dolf confesses to Alfred that [[Miriam Merel|his mother]] was a [[:Category:Thrush Character|thrush]] and not a [[:Category:Crow Character|crow]], giving him a yellow beak. Alfred tries to convince him that it's not a big deal, but Dolf doubles down and tells him that just like in the middle ages Alfred also needs to be scared of being burnt at the stake, just like the witches from Meester Bas' lecture. Then the two hear a scary echo-y voice calling Alfred.<br />
<br />
====Een Goed Gesprek====<br />
:''(lit. "A Good Talk")''<br />
Alfred is woken up by Henk who had looked for him. He's there to pick him up. Alfred tells him about his dream of him and Dolf being stuck down the well and Henk recalls how he found them and called out. And how Dolf and Alfred had mistaken his voice for a witch. Luckily it all worked out in the end. <br />
<br />
Having arrived at Henk's mine house Alfred declines the game of chess and instead demands Henk tell him where he came from. At first Henk is reluctant to start a conversation about that and tries to change the subject, but when Alfred insist he starts to tell about his old friend [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]]. <br />
<br />
Johan and he were floating in Johan's clog boat through the [[Plaspoelpolder]] in [[Breed Rietland]], when they heard the song of a female [[:Category:Duck Character|duck]]. Henk took it upon himself to introduce Johan to the source of the singing, namely [[Anna van de Polder]]. Falling completely in love Johan spent the rest of the day and part of the night working on a [[Nog Nooit|song]]. Just as he was about to find Anna again and sing his song, when he saw [[Henri Dropshot]] and [[Johnny Hollyday]] fighting over her. He took his chance and the interaction resulted in a relationship that bloomed. They were wed shortly after, Henk serving as Johan's [[wikipedia:Groomsman#Best_man|best man]] and Amanda de Vlinder as Anna's [[wikipedia:Bridesmaid|bridesmaid]]. <br />
<br />
Alfred asks him if he means Amanda who he had spoken to today, and Henk says that the Amanda from the wedding is current Amanda's great-great-great-great-grandmother. Henk continues to tell Alfred that Johan and Anna laid 7 eggs and suddenly Alfred realizes he's not from Groot Waterland, but from Breed Rietland. Alfred starts crying saying that Dolf ''is'' from [[Groot Waterland]] and he isn't, which prompts Henk to correct him; Dolf was ''also'' born in Breed Rietland. <br />
<br />
====Geboren====<br />
:''(lit. "Born")''<br />
Henk tells about Dolf's father [[Schor de Kraai]], whom Johan was regularly arguing with. According to Henk, Schor already almost didn't recognize Dolf as he was having memory problems, especially after the death of his wife [[Miriam Merel]]. Schor and Miriam also made an unannounced maternity visit at Johan and Anna's nest. Anna had taken a break, leaving Johan to defend the quality of the eggs against Schor, especially the one that Alfred would be born out of. Johan grabbed it and given it to Henk for safe keeping. At right that moment Alfred had hatched in front of Henk. Henk told the parents that the duckling reminded him of his own grandfather, [[Alfred de Mol]] and Johan and Anna decide to name their firstborn after him. [[Alfred's brothers and sisters]] hatched the next day.<br />
<br />
====Het pretpark====<br />
:''(lit. "The amusement park")''<br />
The day after Alfred's birth his [[Alfred's brothers and sisters|brothers and sisters]] hatched. Henk recalls the origin of all the names of his siblings; usually named after other family members or friends. Henk also tells about a moment in which Alfred was almost killed by a [[wikipedia:Steamroller|steamroller]] after wandering off. Alfred compares it to Anna's brother [[Jan van de Polder]] who was struck by a car before Anna and Johan had met; a story Henk had told a little earlier. <br />
<br />
Then the ground starts shaking and Henk and the family are lifted by an enormous [[wikipedia:Bulldozer|bulldozer]]. [[Beton Maatschappij|Construction company Bart Bever Beton B.V.]] was constructing a huge amusement park as funded by [[Kaspar Rokodil]]<ref group="note">This is inconsistent with the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]], in the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|original episode]] this role belongs to [[Alfons Rokodil]]. This is apparent from a different character design with a different name in the [[Character- and Color-Designs for Alfred J. Kwak]] design book and the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1#Production|outlines written by [[Herman van Veen]] for the first episode.</ref> and organized by [[Olaf Nijlpaard]]. Henk and Johan do their best to convince the entrepeneurs to cease destroying the [[Plaspoelpolder]], but to no avail. Anna also wants to leave as soon as possible, but remains quiet, being overwhelmed.<br />
<br />

===References===<br />
* Several times [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] says to himself that he was the only kid in the third year of primary school to be able to swim to the other side of the big river without touching anything or somersault in the water, something that's also said in the introduction of the character in the [[Herman van Veen zingt en vertelt de muziekfabel van Alfred Jodocus Kwak|original stage play]].<ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 12''</ref><ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 31''</ref> Later on when [[Henk de Mol]] tells Alfred about his parents, he says that [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]] predicted he would be able to swim to the other side of the big river with his eyes clothes in the fourth year of primary school.

* When Alfred encounters [[Dolf de Kraai]] he thinks to himself that he wants to avoid a ''kemphanengevecht'', meaning a fight between two [[wikipedia:Ruff|ruff birds]], which also has a double meaning of a brawl between two people who are frequently in conflict or rivalry. [[Henri Dropshot]] and [[Johnny Hollyday]] who are characters that are introduced later and receive names for the first time in this book are also referenced as '''kemphanen'' in their character sheet and the [[Alfred J.

* Alfred tells [[Amanda de Vlinder]] to tell [[Henk de Mol]] he will be ''een druppel later'' (lit. "a drop later")<ref group="note">A drop of water.</ref>. This is a reference to one of the lines of the opening song [[Spetter Pieter Pater]].<br />
* Part of slogans that [[Dolf de Kraai]] brainstorms for his future [[Nationale Kraaienpartij]] is ''Kra Dolf'', which is a combination of the German name of his character and the Dutch name and also makes the reference of his character to the name [[Adolf Hitler]] even clearer.<ref>{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 176''</ref><br />

<br />
The book retells several episodes ([[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|episode 1]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 2|2]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 4|4]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 5|5]]) of the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] in a dream and through a story by [[Henk de Mol]]. It then tells an alternate version of the story from [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 12|episode 12]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 13|episode 13]], this time set in summer rather than in winter. All retellings have slight deviations, never completely lining up with the original episodes.<br />
<br />
The book also takes many story elements from the 1989 book [[De wonderlijke avonturen van de eend Alfred Jodocus Kwak: Goedemorgen]], including the names of [[Alfred's brothers and sisters]] and [[Amanda de Vlinder]], but slightly deviating from it as well, giving [[Hannes Snater|Hannes]] and [[Wannes Snater|Wannes]] the surname "Ganzenbord" instead of "Snater", which was established by Goedemorgen. <br />
<br />
Most of the book is written from [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]]'s point of view, except for chapters "De troubadour", "Schoensmeer", "Met pensioen" and "De Kraaienpartij", in which [[Meester Bas Buldog]] is also the point of view character. Strangely in the first two of those chapters it's Alfred's dream we're following. It is then, perhaps, possible that the latter two of those mentioned chapters might also be part of Alfred's dream. The book title translates to "Alfred Jodocus Kwak's dream", and many plot points seem to follow a dream-logic, so this seems plausible. The book does not provide answers to this, likely on purpose. <br />
<br />
The book is full of songs, some of which are alterations of songs from the animated series. A full list can be read [[Songs from De Droom van Alfred Jodocus Kwak (book)|here]].<br />
<br />
The final page of the book shows a list of [[Herman van Veen]] written stories about [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]], including the first 15 volumes of [[De wonderlijke avonturen van Alfred J. Kwak]], with specifically [[De wonderlijke avonturen van Alfred J. Kwak: De lieve sneeuwman]] out of order, as well as [[Annet Kossen]]'s Alfred Jodocus Kwak book and the [[Wat Wijzer]] series up to [[Wat Wijzer met Alfred Jodocus Kwak: Propvol]] and including the next book called '''[[Wat Wijzer#Winnie|Winnie]]'''. Following that a short list of music books; [[Muziekboek spetter pieter pater]] and [[De Kwak-liedjes]]. Finally a short list of comics by [[Harald Siepermann]] and [[Hans Bacher]]; [[De wonderlijke avonturen van de eend Alfred Jodocus Kwak]], [[Vissen in troebel water]] and [[Professor Paljas]].<br />
<br />
===Themes===<br />
Moreso than most books written to recount the episodes from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]], [[Hanneke Holzhaus]] and [[Herman van Veen]] chose to weave a story between established stories and provide more of a cohesive and thematic whole between them. The theme of death pops up quite often, as this is the story in which the most named characters are mentioned having died; [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]], [[Anna van de Polder]], [[Alfred's brothers and sisters]]<ref name="DRO P151">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 151''</ref>, [[Jan van de Polder Junior|Jan van de Polder]] (Anna's brother)<ref name="DRO P103">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 103''</ref>, [[Miriam Merel]] (Dolf's mother)<ref name="DRO P120">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 120''</ref> and [[Amanda de Vlinder]]<ref name="DRO P155">{{CiteBook|DRO}} ''Page 155''</ref>. All of them Alfred needs to confront. First off, especially, the death of his family and finding out what happened to them is a driving force from the start of the book. Then when Alfred is finally told by Henk what has happened, it takes finding Amanda on Henk's porch for him to truly start processing his feelings. <br />
<br />
Another element of the story is family and found family. How family can both give you love and give you hate and how that forms children. [[Dolf de Kraai]] is made sympathetic by having a father that hates his existence and a mother that is not strong enough to cope. He outright rejects the compassion that Alfred gives him, and instead pivots to power, and when that doesn't work to groveling at those in power. Because [[Schor de Kraai]] needed to be better than his son, so does Dolf need to be better than anyone else. Because Schor never gave him love and the one person that did, his mother, died, he doesn't expect or want love to survive. But in the end we have a comparison between Alfred, surrounded by friends and a loving surrogate father going through pain, but surviving, and Dolf who is still friends with [[Hannes Snater|Hannes]] and [[Wannes Snater]] as if nothing has really changed since their days at school. Still isolated, still not accepting love or compassion. And for Dolf it's even worse as he starts robbing stately mansions. <br />
<br />
Dreaming is another theme that pops up regularly, also of course relating to the title of the book. The book plays with the impossibility of dreams having an effect on the real world. Is Alfred dreaming about the [[White chess queen]] or not? The same can be said for whether or not Alfred's dream influenced minstrel [[Kukeleku]]'s work. Or is everything we read from [[Meester Bas Buldog]]'s perspective — the only perspective in which we read more of Kukeleku's work — part of Alfred's dream? This might've been foreshadowed by Amanda de Vlinder's song suddenly being attributed to minstrel Kukeleku. Does that mean all scenes with him are actually part of Alfred's dream as influenced by his reality? It is left ambiguous; an impossible puzzle that doesn't have a solution.<br />
<br />
==Changes from the original==<br />
: ''This book bases its story on several episodes of the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]], specifically episodes [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|1]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 2|2]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 4|5]], [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 12|12]] and [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 13|13]]. The book takes some liberties however. While some of these descrepancies can be attributed to [[Henk de Mol]] telling [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] about previous events, or Alfred's dreams contain differences to the actual events, most of these changes cannot be reconciled with the animated series' continuity.''<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1|Episode 1]]===<br />
* A very clear distinction is made in the book that the events in this episode are in fact set in [[Breed Rietland]]'s [[Plaspoelpolder]], which is a distinction that the animated series doesn't necessarily make as clear, even though it is mentioned in the [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 1#scripts|episode 1 outlines]]. <br />
* Just like in [[De wonderlijke avonturen van de eend Alfred Jodocus Kwak: Goedemorgen]], [[Johan Sebastiaan Kwak]] uses his clog as a boat. <br />
* [[Rap de Kiekendief]] and [[Snel de Snoek]] do not appear in the book. Instead when Johan is confronted by [[Schor de Kraai]] and Schor picks up [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]]'s egg, Johan quickly snatches it away and gives it to [[Henk de Mol]]. Alfred then hatches in front of Henk. <br />
* [[Kaspar Rokodil]]'s name is used in every instance in the story about [[Groot Speelgoedland]] in the book, when that should in fact be [[Alfons Rokodil]].<br />
* In the book [[Miriam Merel]] is a lot more the victim of Schor's abuse, rather than joining him in his abuse of Johan. [[Anna van de Polder|Anna]] and their eggs.<br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 2|Episode 2]]===<br />
* <br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 4|Episode 4]]===<br />
* A point is made about potatoes not being sold in the [[Polderstad#Middle ages|middle ages]] in the book, that seems to be a reaction to the episode in which it is listed as one of the products sold on the market square in [[Polderstad]] during the [[wikipedia:13th century|13th century]].<ref name="Potato">{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Page 37''</ref><br />
* [[Meester Bas Buldog]] tells the class in the book that people were burnt for being different, specifically women. Their ash would be spread in [[The well|the well]], and their spirits might haunt the area.<ref name="Well1">{{CiteBook|DRO}}''Pages 45-47''</ref> The animated series depicts a more child-friendly story in which people that were different were banished from the city, congregated at the well, and possibly died there.<ref name="Ep4">{{CiteAJKep|JP|4}}</ref><br />
* For this and the following episode the inclusion of [[Krabnagel de Kater]] is completely omitted for the book, possibly because at the end of the book Krabnagel is given a slightly more sympathetic depiction. <br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 5|Episode 5]]===<br />
* [[Henk de Mol]] finds Alfred and [[Dolf de Kraai]] in the well and doesn't have to fend off Krabnagel de Kater, like he needs to do in the episode. Therefore there is also no moment depicted in the book where Henk ends up on a pond with thin ice. <br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 12|Episode 12]]===<br />
* This episode and the following was set during winter, but the book is set during the summer holiday after Alfred J. Kwak graduates from [[wikipedia:Middle school|middle school]].<br />
<br />
===[[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 13|Episode 13]]===<br />

<br />
====France====<br />

===Asia===<br />
This continent is never given a name in the series, but it contains all the countries based on real-life [[wikipedia:Asia|Asian]] countries. <br />

====Groot Musland====<br />
:''(lit. "Great Sparrowland")''<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Groot Musland|main article]]''<br />
Groot Musland is the homeland of [[Igor]] and seems to be a [[wikipedia:Monoethnicity|monoethnic]] country as all currently known characters who have lived here are depicted as [[:Category:Sparrow Character|sparrows]]. The country also seems to have spies infiltrating [[Groot Waterland]]. Groot Musland is without a doubt based on [[wikipedia:Russia|Russia]] as the name and the accent of [[Igor's handler]] suggest. <br />
<br />
====Jippon====<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Jippon|main article]]''<br />
Jippon is the country visited by [[Professor Paljas von Pinguïn]] and [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] when the professor tries to sell his [[De Vliegende Molen|Flying Mill]]-space ship design. The country is fascinated by [[wikipedia:Golf|golf]].<ref name="Ep48">{{CiteAJKep|JA|48}}</ref> Jippon is based on [[wikipedia:Japan|Japan]] and it's name is an amalgamation of the word Japan and the Japanese word for Japan, namely Nippon.<br />

<br />
====Zaïra (Zonder Waterland)====<br />
:''(lit. "Zaïra (Without Waterland)")<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Zaïra|main article]]''<br />
This is the country [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] wants to dig canals for to help the people of this country with [[wikipedia:Irrigation|irrigation]]. The country was explicitely named in [[Wat wijzer met Alfred Jodocus Kwak]], but is generally known throughout the franchise as "Zonder Waterland".

<br />
====Thuisland====<br />
:''(lit. "Homeland")<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Thuisland|main article]]''<br />
The inclusion of Thuisland on this continent is not based on mentions in the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] itself, but based on the inclusion of the character designs of [[Kwa Wana|Kwa]] and [[Blanche Wana]] in the story that's set on this continent<ref>{{CiteBook|CCD}}</ref>. While their appearance was cut in the final episodes, Thuisland was mostly based on [[South Africa]].<br />

This section is concerned with all the locations from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] and the [[Books|books]]. The world [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] and the other characters inhabit is based on the real world. However, not all continents are given a proper name in the story itself, which makes most of the world building a little bit of guesswork.<br />

<br />
====Morena====<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Morena|main article]]''<br />

<br />
====France====<br />
The song [[Monte Carla (song)|Monte Carla]] clarifies that the language they speak in the city of [[Monte Carla (city)|Monte Carla]] is Frands<ref group="note">'Frands' is an intentional mispronunciation of the Dutch word 'Frans', which in this case refers to the French language.</ref> inferring that there is a France equivalence in this world. <br />

The country also seems to have spies infiltrating [[Groot Waterland]]. Groot Musland is without a doubt based on [[wikipedia:Russia|Russia]] as the name and the accent of [[Igor's handler]] suggest. <br />

Jippon is the country visited by [[Professor Paljas von Pinguïn]] and [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] when the professor tries to sell his [[De Vliegende Molen|Flying Mill]]-space ship design.

<div>==Fictional locations==<br />
This section is concerned with all the locations from the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] and the [[Books|books]]. The world [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] and the other characters inhabit is based on the real world. However, not all continents are given a proper name in the story itself, which makes most of the world building a little bit of guesswork.<br />
<br />
===Europe===<br />
This continent is never given a name in the series, but it contains all the countries based on real-life [[wikipedia:Europe|European]] countries. <br />
====Groot Waterland====<br />
:''(lit. "Great Waterland")''<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Groot Waterland|main article]]''<br />
This country is based on [[wikipedia:The Netherlands|the Netherlands]].<ref name="Ep50">{{CiteAJKep|NL|50}}</ref> This country is home to most of the protagonists of the animated series. It contains [[Polderstad]], the [[King's castle]] and [[Waterslag]] among other places.<br />
<br />
====Breed Rietland====<br />
:''(lit. "Wide Reedland")''<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Breed Rietland|main article]]''<br />
This country is likely based on [[wikipedia:Germany|Germany]]. This assumption is based on the geographical location in the series, [[Herman van Veen]]'s connection to Germany.<br />
<br />
====Morena====<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Morena|main article]]''<br />
This location is likely based on [[wikipedia:Monaco|Monaco]].<ref name="Ep50">{{CiteAJKep|NL|50}}</ref> The city depicted in [[Alfred J. Kwak Episode 50|episode 50]] is likely called [[Monte Carla (city)]], which is named in the [[Monte Carla (song)|song with the same name]].<br />
<br />
====France====<br />
The song [[Monte Carla (song)|Monte Carla]] clarifies that the language they speak in the city of [[Monte Carla (city)|Monte Carla]] is Frands<ref group="note">'Frands' is an intentional mispronunciation of the Dutch word 'Frans', which in this case refers to the French language.</ref> inferring that there is a France equivalence in this world. <br />

<br />
===Arlon continent===<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Arlon continent|main article]]''<br />
This is the only continent in the series given a name, and it's likely based on [[wikipedia:Africa|Africa]].<ref name="Ep49">{{CiteAJKep|NL|49}}</ref><br />
====Thuisland====<br />
:''(lit. "Homeland")<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Thuisland|main article]]''<br />
The inclusion of Thuisland on this continent is not based on mentions in the [[Alfred J. Kwak|animated series]] itself, but based on the inclusion of the character designs of [[Kwa Wana|Kwa]] and [[Blanche Wana]] in the story that's set on this continent<ref>{{CiteBook|CCD}}</ref>. While their appearance was cut in the final episodes, Thuisland was mostly based on [[South Africa]].<br />
<br />
====Het Land van de Piramiden====<br />
:''(lit. "The Land of the Pyramids")<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Het Land van de Piramiden|main article]]''<br />
Het Land van de Piramiden is very likely to be based on [[wikipedia:Egypt|Egypt]], as both are famous for their [[wikipedia:Pyramid|Pyramids]].<br />

===Unknown continent===<br />
Here is a list of countries that have not been confirmed to be in a certain continent. <br />
====Zaïra (Zonder Waterland)====<br />
:''(lit. "Zaïra (Without Waterland)")<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Zaïra|main article]]''<br />
This is the country [[Alfred Jodocus Kwak]] wants to dig canals for to help the people of this country with [[wikipedia:Irrigation|irrigation]]. The country was explicitely named in [[Wat wijzer met Alfred Jodocus Kwak]], but is generally known throughout the franchise as "Zonder Waterland". Zaïra is almost certainly based on [[wikipedia:Zaire|Zaire]]. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Dor Hongerland====<br />
:''(lit. "Dry Hungerland")<br />
:''For more information, check the [[Dor Hongerland|main article]]''<br />
While it is highly possible this is a country set in Africa, and therefore likely on the [[Arlon continent]], it is technically never confirmed. <br />
