關於這個故事

Puss in Boots is a French fairy tale published by Charles Perrault in 1697 as The Master Cat, or Puss in Boots, in the same collection as Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood. A clever cat wins a fortune for his penniless master, the miller's youngest son, by inventing the grand title Marquis of Carabas. Perrault's cat threatens to have the mowers chopped up and gobbles up the ogre once he becomes a mouse; this bedtime version keeps the cat cheeky but traps the ogre under a teacup and sends him packing.

故事告訴我們

Cleverness and effort can take you further than whatever you happen to inherit. It's also a fun story to talk over afterwards: the cat wins by bluffing, so is that fair?

適合

Ages 4–9

講給孩子聽的小貼士

  • Give Puss a very proper, polite voice; it makes his fibs funnier.
  • Let your child shout Marquis of Carabas every time it comes up.
  • Ask whether the cat told the truth, and what the miller's son should do now.

Charles Perrault published the famous version in France in 1697. Earlier Italian versions had been written by Giovanni Francesco Straparola in the 1550s and Giambattista Basile in the 1630s.
What is the moral of Puss in Boots?

He is the miller's youngest son, Puss's master. He has no title at all; the cat invents the grand name Marquis of Carabas to impress the King.
