# Les Mémoires d'un âne.

By Sophie Ségur, comtesse de.

"Les Mémoires d'un âne" by comtesse de Sophie Ségur is a novel published in 1860. Written as an autobiography, it follows Cadichon, a "learned donkey" who recounts his adventures with various masters. Some treat him kindly, earning his loyalty and service—he even saves a child from fire. Others abuse him, prompting rebellion. Through his experiences, Cadichon learns that cleverness alone isn't enough; true happiness requires a good heart. The tale blends peasant wisdom with moral lessons about kindness and redemption.
