The Little Prince
by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
A philosophical fairy tale about a young prince who travels from planet to planet, meeting various adults who have lost their sense of wonder and imagination. The story explores themes of friendship, love, loss, and the importance of seeing the world through a child's eyes. Through encounters with characters like a fox who teaches about relationships and a pilot stranded in the desert, the tale examines what truly matters in life and critiques adult preoccupations with numbers and appearances.
