Collana "Classici della gioventù". collana dedicata alle letture per i più giovani, volume XIX. Protagonista del romanzo è François Lepic, un ragazzino introverso, soprannominato "Pel di carota" per il rutilismo, il quale è angariato in casa da una madre arida, che non lo ama, ed è vessato dal fratello maggiore Felice e dalla sorella maggiore Ernestina. Qualche sentimento di simpatia gli viene solo dal padre, sia pur inespresso e soffocato; il padre è vittima anch'egli della dispotica moglie. Pel di carota cerca con tutto l'impegno di soddisfare le richieste della madre e di cavarsela come può nell'ostile ambiente familiare. Non difende, come pure avrebbe voluto, l'anziana domestica Onorina quando viene licenziata dalla signora Lepic per una mancanza compiuta in realtà dal ragazzo[ Scollato sulla brossura.
