«La soeur de Gribouille» is the young-adult novel by Sophie de Ségur, published by Hachette in paperback (440 pages, in French).
The story opens in a modest home: the mother is in bed while her daughter Caroline finishes a commissioned dress, and Gribouille, a boy of fifteen or sixteen, tries to repair an old, dirty book. From that everyday scene, the narrative focuses on the family and the relationship between sister and brother.
«La soeur de Gribouille» was originally published in 1862; this Hachette paperback edition is from 1994.
Suitable for readers aged 9 to 12 who want to discover French classics in their original language.
