The Observations of Henry by Jerome K. Jerome - Jerome Klapka Jerome

Henry is -- what else? -- a waiter. And Kipper and Carrot? They are the ragamuffin pair who tumble into the coffee shop where Henry works, one sunny day in England. Kipper helps Carrot develop her stage talents . . . while Carrot gets high ideas and marries even higher to become the Marchioness of Appleford!
