The Little Prince

Antoine de Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince is an endearing tale of equel appeal to the young and the grown-ups. It blends a simple story of an aviator forced to land in a remote desert and his meeting a small boy, the Little Prince from another planet, with an allegory of human condition; entertaining, thought-provoking and mind-triggering in the process. The beautiful illustrations drawn by the author are as expressive as his simple language that conveys deeper shades of philosophy. The stories of interplanetary travels of the Little Prince are strange, lovely parables that have rendered this account to become the most widely read classic of our time.
