Le Petit Prince is the original French title of this charming children's book -- (or perhaps it's an adult's book?) The easy words, simple ideas, elementary lessons, and watercolor pictures might make a person believe it's for children. Think again. The design of the plot may be only a small part of a interwoven web of big notions.
"And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
? Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
The Little Prince is written to make one see adults from a child's perspective -- how serious that adults seem to always be, not looking at life from a cheery, fun viewpoint. One might see the book as being written as a comical little muse. Children will enjoy it as a picture book. Adults will enjoy it for the truths the words hide.
The author, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, was born in 1900 in Lyon, France. Mesmerized with flight in his childhood, he eventually became a pilot in the military, serving during World War II. He dreamed big -- just as this book shows. But his ultimate dream of flying nabbed him from this world in 1944, he himself much like The Little Prince. His most famous work published only a year before his untimely death.

delightful
This is a book for all ages. As a child it is a great children's book. As a college age student it is an example of allegory. As someone learning to make relationships and find one's way, it is thought provoking. And now at 70 I have read it again, with the same delight but more insight.
I have quoted the secret of the fox for over 50 years.

James Dean's Favorite
I first became interested in reading The Little Prince when I heard that it was James Dean's favorite book. After reading the story, I see why he liked the book so much. An intellectual read for sure with quite a powerful yet simple message. I think everyone who reads this book will take something very personal away from it. I highly recommend this book. Read it to the kids and read it to yourself because it's a great story for all ages.
