Sinossi
Un aviatore in volo sopra il deserto del Sahara è costretto da un'avaria ad atterrare nel mezzo del nulla. Pensa di essere solo sotto il cielo trapunto di stelle, lontano mille miglia dalla civiltà. Quando all'improvviso, una voce lo sorprende: «Disegnami una pecora!». A parlare è un bambino, il principe del lontano asteroide B 612, su cui viveva in compagnia di tre vulcani e una rosa, piccola e vanitosa. Di lì è partito per un lungo viaggio attraverso il cosmo, durante il quale ha incontrato tanti bizzarri personaggi – un re solitario, un vanitoso che loda solo sé stesso, un arido businessman, un ubriacone che beve per dimenticare, uno zelante lampionaio e un geografo – imparando da ciascuno le piccole grandi verità che compongono il mosaico della saggezza umana. Approdato infine sulla terra viene avvicinato da una volpe che gli chiede di essere addomesticata e gli rivela il segreto più prezioso: quello dell'amicizia. Ma al termine del racconto è tempo per l'uomo e per il bambino di separarsi: il piccolo principe deve far ritorno alla sua rosa. Non prima di aver fatto dono al pilota del suo sorriso e di un confortante messaggio: ogni volta che alzerà lo sguardo verso le stelle saprà che lassù c'è un piccolo principe che veglia la sua rosa.

*** For those who somehow have no idea about what happens in The Little Prince or cannot figure it out at a reasonable spot in the book, here is a warning - THERE WILL BE, as much as I hate applying this term to this incredibly famous classic that does not rely on Aha! moments to keep the readers' a Leggi tutto
The next asteroid the Little Prince came to was inhabited by a Quiz Addict. He sat hunched in front of his laptop, and barely looked up when the Little Prince greeted him. There was nowhere else to sit, since the whole asteroid was covered in books. "Good morning!" said the Little Prince. "I'm sorry, Leggi tutto
We are all children in adult bodies. Yes we are, don't think we aren't for one moment. The fact that we WERE, indeed, children, is a huge part of each of us. It is possible to shed a few appreciative tears on every page of this book if you entertain the thought that the pilot IS The Little Prince. M Leggi tutto
Great observations, but personally I think it's overrated. It practically begs the reader to come to the conclusion that if you don't "get it" it's your own fault because you're a "grown up, and only kids can see what matters." It's heavy handed, clumsily executed observations on what's important in Leggi tutto

'one sees clearly only with the heart.' sometimes i fall into a mood where i am simply tired of life. where i just want to crawl under the duvet with a cup of tea, hug a book and never let go. 'the little prince' is that book for me. its a truly special treasure. its precious. its my rose. ______
So amazing. I can see many rereads of this in the years to come.
A "Daddy/Daughter nighttime reading hour" review This was a toughy for me to review. I wasn't sure of the best perspective from which to provide comments so as to be of assistance to my fellow readers since this is a children's book (rather than YA which would be reviewed purely on its own merits).
