    The grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiring for the children to always give them explanations.

  2. Popular highlight

    Big people like numbers. When you tell them about a new friend, they never question you about what's important. They never tell you, "What is the sound of his voice, what games he prefers, does he collect butterflies?" They ask you, "How old is he, how many brothers does he have, how much does he earn, how much does his father earn?"

    It is much more difficult to judge oneself than to judge others. If you succeed in judging yourself well, it is because you are a true sage.

I love this. It’s beautifully illustrated and it’s a joy to read. I love the original illustrations by the author, but these are also magical and bring the story to life too. This is a timeless classic, for any age. I’m glad I was able to add this version to my collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very precious book
Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2018

Since The Little Prince is pretty short, I finished reading it in one day. The experience reading it as an adult would definitely be different from reading it as a child, so as someone who first read this as an adult, I'll admit this book filled me with a sense of nostalgia for my childhood and more innocent days.

The plot at first seems straightforward enough; the narrator meets a baffling young prince who gives him strange requests, and at first the story chronicles the prince's experience on his planet, and encountering other people on other planets, each of them an allegory for a kind of adult someone might grow to become, and most of them aren't very favourable depictions. The prince develops a friendship with the narrator, and this allows him to share his experiences of travelling with him.

The language is simple enough, and the illustrations are beautiful. They reminded me of water colours, and although on my Kindle they're all in black and white, the image quality wasn't compromised. Apart from the plot, I think the main takeaway from The Little Prince is definitely the many beautiful and resonant quotes peppered throughout the book, from the fox's nuggets of wisdom to the narrator's observations of the prince.

Overall, a very delightful (if also feelsy) read.

I read this the first time in high school, in French. I was sure I was not translating it correctly, after all a boa constrictor who eats an elephant drawn from both the inside and the outside!? Had to be something wrong with that picture, but there wasn't and it was a wonderful story then and the twenty times I've read it (in English) since. If one can be tamed by a book, this one has done it.

I bought this book brand new and it came converted in mold and torn to shreds. The replacement copy came within 2 days later in perfect condition. So weird. But over all I am pleased with my purchase
