This was such a sweet and charming little short story. Even though I didn't understand all of it I still enjoyed and appreciated this little book!

This book explores various adult professions from a child's perspective. It showed the Little Prince's travels to various planets and places exploring and meeting different people always asking questions and looking for answers. It amazes me that a book written 80 years ago can be so relevant and reflect the world how it is today.

This is such a sweet and charming book for children and adults alike! Can not recommend this book enough!

reread, i'm not on board with some of the messages and since i read a version from 1956 it still had the n-word in it.
but i still like the book a lot, and i cried a little at the end.

There aren’t adequate words to describe how gorgeous this book is. It’s a book I think EVERY PERSON should read at least once.
