Why did I cry at then end? It’s not that serious isn’t it? It is somehow.

I found this tiny little book mesmerising and extremely beautiful. Words cannot describe how I felt reading it, as I don’t usually read such books. This was new and exceptionally magnificent.

“Grown-ups find it hard to understand anything on their own, and it is tiring for children to always have to explain things to them.

As small as this book is, there’s a lot of beautifully said things which really need digging deeper. 

“And when you start to feel better, you will be happy that you knew me. You will always be a friend to me. You will want to laugh with me. And sometimes you will open your window and laugh. And your friends, surprised to see you laughing at the sky, will think you are mad! You will say to them,”

I’m a little dramatic but this was undoubtedly one of the most heart shattering things I’ve read.

The Little Prince is a sweet treasure of a book, full of meaningful metaphors. I read The Little Prince in high school, but it resonates and hits a different chord now as an adult.

The Little Prince tamed my heart, and the ending was a heart-breaking / heart-warming moment.

Creo que esta fue la cuarta o quinta vez que leí el principito. Lo hice como un regalo para alguien, se lo voy a regalar y quise dejarle mis apreciaciones y anotaciones lindas ♡ La última vez le puse 4 estrellas, ahora le pongo 5 porque es lo que merece. Este es uno de los mejores libros que existe y me peleo con quien sea para defender eso, las lecciones que deja, las frases que deja, es simplemente espectacular ❤❤❤❤

I didn't know what to expect with this book, but it was so good! So cute with an unexpected ending. The illustration were gorgeous. I really, really liked the book and will probably read it again. Definitely worth the quick read.

Me retracto públicamente de todas las veces que dije que este libro no me gustó. La verdad es que este libro es un manual para niños de cómo ser adulto ¿o un libro infaltil para adultos? No sé. Lo único que sé es que me hizo llorar de la peor manera: sin lágrimas y por todas las cosas por las que no había llorado antes.
