Old French Fairy Tales by comtesse de Sophie Ségur
Sophia de Segur (née Rostopchina; 1799-1874) is a French writer whose work is considered a “monument of national culture” in her homeland. “The Grandmother of the Pink Library,” as the French call Countess de Segur, began her literary work when she was almost 60 years old, and published about 20 books for children, thanks to which she remains one of the greatest children's writers in France.
