The little Prince

By Antoine de Saint-Exupery, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and Irene Testot-Ferry

Recommend book

Now with the restored original artwork, the beloved classic story of a young prince's travels throughout space--a profound tale about loneliness and loss, and love and friendship.

A pilot crashes in the Sahara Desert and encounters a strange young boy who calls himself the Little Prince. The Little Prince has traveled there from his home on a lonely, distant asteroid with a single rose. The story that follows is a beautiful and at times heartbreaking meditation on human nature.

The Little Prince is one of the best-selling and most translated books of all time, universally cherished by children and adults alike, and Richard Howard's translation of the beloved classic beautifully reflects Saint-Exupéry's unique and gifted style, bringing the English text as close as possible to the French in language, style, and spirit. In this special edition, the artwork has been restored to match in detail and in color Saint-Exupéry's original artwork.

This definitive English-language edition of The Little Prince will capture the hearts of readers of all ages.

Absolutely loved this book! It's like a gift that surprises you every time you read it. Recommend reading this as a child, then as a teen, then as an adult. There really is something to take away here for everyone.

The Little Prince is an honest and beautiful story about loneliness, friendship, sadness, and love. The prince is a small boy from a tiny planet (an asteroid to be precise), who travels the universe, planet-to-planet, seeking wisdom. On his journey, he discovers the unpredictable nature of adults.

I've read this book multiple times throughout my life, since I was a little kid. I've read it in both English and Korean. It was actually one of the first chapter books I read in Korean, after moving there from the U.S. as a kid. The Little Prince is one of those books that stay relevant and enlightening, no matter how many times you read it. You know it's a good book when both children and adults can equally enjoy it for different reasons.

This book is meant for children but made me cry on how realistic it is at portraying how innocence is rare and is crushed by this cruel world.
