Summary: "Our Children: Scenes from the Country and the Town" by Anatole France is a collection of children's stories written during the early 20th century. This book celebrates the innocence and joy of childhood as it explores various adventures and day-to-day experiences of children living in both rural and urban settings. The tales capture the whimsy and simplicity of childhood, making it a delightful read for both young audiences and adults reminiscing about their own childhood. The stories in this collection revolve around characters like Fanny, who embarks on a charming visit to her grandmother, and follows her innocent interactions with nature and animals.
