THE TREASURE MADNESS - SOPHIE'S ADVENTURES




Descending from the Khans and Moscow's Governor's daughter, Sophie Rostopchine was a member of the Russian aristocracy before meeting the Count of Ségur and living in the château des Nouettes (France). After a sad period of life, partly because of the adulterous and big spender comportment of her husband, she wrote her first novel at the age of 58, as the proof that everybody can find their vocation even at a great age. "The Sophie's misfortuns" must refer to her unruly childhood and her motto: "Just write what you've seen". This book presents the story of a young curious french girl, who always tries to find news experiences. Because of her adventurous personality, she makes many foolishness with her cousin Paul, who does his best to keep her on the right track. The story was followed by two other books: "Good Little Girls" and "The holidays". Both stories took place in the Fleurville's domain with her cruel mother in law and two comprehensive and patient sisters, Camille and Madeleine. Countess of Segur's work has been sent for many millions of copies all around the world and blew a new wind on children's literature. Furthermore, her books made a teaching renewal by highlighting the importance of a balanced education.
