«La petite Fadette» is the young-adult novel by George Sand, published by Hachette Jeunesse in hardcover (185 pages, in French).
In the rural Berry of the 19th century, the twins Landry and Sylvain are very different. Landry agrees to work at Caillaud de la Priche's farm; Sylvain sinks into jealousy. Little Fadette, a poor girl believed to be somewhat of a witch, awakens Landry's love. The novel portrays peasant society, the theme of the double, and the Berrichon dialect.
It belongs to the Bibliothèque Verte collection, in its 1981 illustrated hardcover edition.
Aimed at young readers approaching French classics, with a rural setting and teenage characters.
Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin de Francueil, best known by her pen name George Sand, was a French novelist, memoirist and journalist. Being more renowned than either Victor Hugo or Honoré de Balzac in Britain in the 1830s and 1840s, Sand is recognised as one of the most notable writers of the European Romantic era. She has more than 50 volumes of various works to her credit, including tales, plays and political texts, alongside her 70 novels.
