The Little Prince
The Little Prince | Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Available for the first time in an edition for young adults, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's classic story, The Little Prince, beloved by readers of all ages, comes to life in a format perfect for teen readers. "I’m glad I was asked to be the ambassador for this book. I suspect you may find that something of the starry magic of this story stays with you, as it has with me." — Gregory Maguire "A lovely story…which covers a poetic, yearning philosophy—not the sort of fable that can be tacked down neatly at its four corners but rather reflections on what are real matters of consequence." — New York Times Book Review At first glance, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s 1943 classic The Little Prince—with its winsome illustrations of a boy prince and his tiny planet—appears to be a children’s fairy tale. It doesn’t take long, however, to discover that it speaks to readers of all ages. This pocket-sized edition, perfect for teens, features Saint-Exupéry’s original full-color illustrations and the unabridged text, a reader’s guide, and a introduction by Gregory Maguire. Rediscover—or share—the magic! This title has been selected as a Common Core Text Exemplar (Grades 4-5, Stories).

The story was simple yet complex. The analogies of life and the differences between children and grown ups I felt were very true. As an adult sometimes it feels like the world loses some of its magic when you are doing an everyday routine. Exploring and learning new things is still very important (ex: hobbies and self care.). This book reminded me that it is never to late to keep discovering yourself as a person.

The Little Prince is probably not a children‘s book, but more a teen‘s book, and a book for adults who need to remember the child inside them. A pop-up book is fun for all ages!
The story of how to tame a fox is very important! As is the scary drawing at the beginning.

Everyone should read this story as a child. And then again as an adult. #bookmoods #wordchallege #positivity

Here‘s my first #MiddleGradeMarch book. It is for the prompt “a book older than me.†I listened to the audiobook and I am so glad I did because the narrator was French which was delightful for me to hear. My father taught me a few words in French, then I studied it in school/college. I loved this book! There were so many good lessons. 18 #BookSpin #23 #BFC22 #AClassicAMonth #ChildrensClassic #ReadYourShelf #MGMarchThroughTime #Buzzwordathon

In our French class, we have to make presentations about French culture and of course, I picked a book as the subject for my presentation. Technically, I didn‘t need to read the book but I‘m so thankful that I did because I loved it. The way it was written was wonderful and though I never read this book as a child, it gave me a strange but great sense of nostalgia.

“Any ordinary person walking past my rose would think she was just like you. But she is much more important than all of you put together, because she‘s the one I watered. She‘s the one I sheltered under a glass dome, she‘s the one whose caterpillars I killed (except for the two or three for the butterflies). She‘s the one I listened to complaining, or boasting, or even being silent. Because she‘s my rose.â€

quote

The Little Prince (Illustrated) | Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

As the little prince continued on his journey, he reflected that all the others - the king, the show-off, the drunkard and the businessman - would look down on this man.
“And yet, he‘s the only person I don‘t find ridiculous. Maybe it‘s because he‘s looking after something other than himself.â€

“If I commanded a general to flit from one flower to another like a butterfly, or to write a tragedy, or to turn into a sea bird, and if the general disobeyed my orders, who would be in the wrong, him or me?â€
“It would be you,†said the little prince with certainty.
“Correct. One must only ask of a person what he can give.â€

I‘ve just finished Joann Sfar‘s new take on The Little Prince. I liked the art very much, and it was certainly very brave of him to redraw the prince, as the original illustrations are so well-loved, but I‘m probably too old and jaded to fully enjoy the story.

Look what I found - my mum‘s 1954 vinyl, Read by Gérard Philippe!

It‘s been a long time since I last wept - not cried, but wept - but this book fixed that real quick. It took me half an hour to read the last 10 pages, because of the tears. Literally just sat and sobbed after finishing it. This book needs to be read, because it reminds us what‘s really important in life. So I‘d just like to say thank you, Mr. Saint-Exupery. Your book truly brightened my life. (And broke my heart!)

Cathythoughts 💔 2y
WJCintron Your review of the book is so relatable. I read this one in school. It was mandatory. I LOVED it, and also cried. I need to re-read it, now that I'm an adult, but because I know I'll cry a LOT, I've been avoiding it. lol
I'm glad you loved it so much. I can't agree more with what you said at the end.
Did you watch the TV show? It was a cartoon. Not the movie, but the old TV show. Beautiful work that stays with you for a lifetime.

TH3F4LC0N Thnx! I‘m glad to see this book seems to have the same effect on everyone who reads it! And no, I haven‘t seen any of the adaptations of it; I‘ve heard the Netflix movie is good tho. I‘ll have to check out the tv show. 2y
