Hector Malot (May 20, 1830 - July 17, 1907) was a French writer born in La Bouille, Seine-Maritime. In total Malot wrote over 70 books. By far his most famous book is Sans Famille (Nobody's Boy, 1878), which deals with the travels of the young orphan Remi, who is sold to the street musician Vitalis at age 10. Sans Famille gained fame as a children's book, though it was not originally intended as such.
