About the Book: The Little Prince
Having crash-landed in the Sahara desert, a pilot comes across a young boy who
introduces himself as the"Little Prince" and tells him the story of how he grew
up on a tiny asteroid before travelling across the galaxies and coming to Earth.
His encounters and discoveries, seen through childlike, innocent eyes, give rise
to candid reflections on life and human nature. First published in 1943 and
featuring the authors own watercolour illustrations, The Little Prince has since
become a classic philosophical fable for young and old, as well as a global
publishing phenomenon, selling tens of millions of copies worldwide and
