A miller, upon dying, divides his possessions among his three sons: to the eldest he leaves the mill, to the second the donkey, and to the youngest only the cat. The young man feels wretched over such a poor inheritance, but the feline shows uncommon cunning and devises a plan to gain fortune and change his master's life.

It is aimed at primary school students in the French curriculum, particularly at the CE1 level.
Charles Perrault was a French author and member of the Académie Française. He laid the foundations for a new literary genre, the fairy tale, with his works derived from earlier folk tales, published in his 1697 book Histoires ou contes du temps passé. The best known of his tales include "Little Red Riding Hood", "Cinderella", "Puss in Boots", "Sleeping Beauty", and "Bluebeard".
