Assollant (1909) The Bibliothèque Rose is a French collection of illustrated children's books created in 1856 by Hachette publishers and intended for children aged six to twelve. The collection was created after Louis Hachette took a train journey with Napoleon III and Count Eugène de Ségur, administrator of the Eastern Railway Company. The idea took root when the Countess told him about the stories his wife, Countess de Ségur, invented for their children. It was she who launched the collection (which only acquired its pink color four years later), originally as "Les Nouveaux Contes de Fées" ("New Fairy Tales").Adorned with numerous black and white illustrations throughout.
