THE PETS OF AURORE DUPIN - A True French Children’s Story

ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 209
In this 209th issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the story of “The Pets of Aurore Dupin.” This is a true story about a young girl growing up in France during the Napoleonic era.

This story is about Aurore Dupin, who later became better known as George Sand, and her friends, the birds and beasts, dwellers like herself in the bare and desolate plains that surrounded her grandmother's château of Nohant near the town of Bourges. In this story we read about Aurore’s pet warblers (look out for the moral in this story!), her pet hawk, rabbit, fawn and donkey, which was more like a dog than donkey and which brought much mirth and amusement to the otherwise formal life of the chateaux.

You are invited to download and read the story of how a young girl was able to tame wild beasts and make them her pets.
