The Little Prince

Antoine de Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince is an endearing tale of equal 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.
