c'est une histoire de laquelle je ne sais jamais si je l'ai comprise. je ne sais pas s'il y a des choses exactes à comprendre. mais elle est jolie, et cette fois-ci, j'ai mieux appercue sa beauté. on l'a lue en vacances, s'embrassant sur les sofa pendent qu'un_e d'entre nous lisait.

still thinking about that lamplighter, HE JUST WANTS TO SLEEP!

Listened to the audio - excellent production with different voices actors for all the characters. Loved the little prince character. 

Intriguing, thought-provoking…confusing perhaps because I’m a grown-up.

I know, I know, shame on me for reading it this late in life, but I have my reasons, reasons that maybe one day I will be brave enough to write about openly here...

Anyways, I am so relieved and happy that this classic lived up to its name as sometimes some classics - if not many - don't! I will be re-reading this many times... And yes, of course, I wish I had read it at least once when I was a kid...

DID NOT FINISH: 14%

it doesn't suit me and the story is boring

And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.

2,7-ish ☆
I think my expectations of this classic were a bit too high. I was actually a bit bored of it, even though it was such a short book, but I can kind of see why it has gotten so popular over time. It teaches the reader important things in life and its messages were beautiful, but the book in itself didn't really move me that much (probably because its target audience are children and young adults). At least I finally got to read it now and see what this is about.
