The story centers around the siblings Simplicie and Innocent, who long to escape their rural life and experience the adventures that await them in Paris.

Mr. Gargilier, feeling exasperated by their children's constant whining about wanting to go to Paris, plots to send them away to teach them a lesson, while Mrs. Gargilier expresses concern for their wellbeing. As the children learn of their imminent journey to the city, their initial excitement turns into a complex mix of joy and apprehension.
