Review
This is the second time I’ve read this (in the English translation) and I don’t remember it being as good as it was this time around. It’s a really sweet story about discovering the world, how ‘weird’ adults are, and discovering where your place in it is.

It’s a classic French story loved by many since its publication in the ‘40s. It’s such a good story that it really needs to be experienced to fully appreciate its timelessness and why its so popular wherever it’s read. The Little Prince would certainly be a great addition to anyone’s personal library.
