Claudine is a head strong, clever and extremely mischievous
schoolgirl. Along with her friends the lanky Anais, the cheerful
Marie and the prim Joubert twins Claudine wreaks havoc on her small
school. Always clever, witty and charming Claudine is more than a
match for her formidable headmistress as they fight for the
attention of the pretty assistant Aimee. The horrors of
examinations and good-humoured bullying are the backdrops in this
immensely funny and delightful novel with which Colette established
the captivating character of Claudine. Through the games, the fun
and the intricacies of school life Claudine emerges as a true
original; lyrical and intelligent she is one of the twentieth
century's most beguiling emancipated women
