Average Rating:
 Rating:  - philosophy for children (and adults)I first read this in French for A level, forty years ago. I bought a copy in English, which has disappeared, and I rediscovered it in my local "tabac" about a year ago. It is a wonderful book, which every adult with average intelligence should read at least once in their lifetime. The world from the perspective of the little prince is revealed in a way which is charming but not at all sentimental, and very thought-provoking if one allows oneself to be challenged. I'm not saying any more ... Read More Rating: - Amusing and relaxing.A good read, and although this is a book designed for chidren, it can be read with as much glee, though probably more, by adults. About a boy from a tiny planet, near Earth, who comes to earth to find a way to save his pet flower, and best friend, the book's flippancy and genial nature make The Little Prince an extremely relieving read; like a breath of fresh air.

A fantastically magnificent written novel and a very worthwhile read. Rating: - Life-changing bookThis isn't just a book... it's very hard to describe.. It's a phenomenon. The story spans all generations - while the colourful characters may superficially please the younger audience, the timeless imagery, symbolism and observations of humanity can teach all but the most obtuse. Having said that, there are people who just don't 'get' this book. They want to know why such and such happens, or what the point of this bit was - if you ask the question, you're just not the sort of person who will ...
