Muy sobrevalorado, me pareció aburrido y sus enseñanzas muy boludas.

This is possibly the most beautifully written book I've ever read. So simple, so elegant, yet so poignant. Each page had at least one line or passage I loved so much that I want it tattooed on me! Honestly such a beautiful story that really explores the complexities of human connection and what we owe to one another. I will read this forever.

I love this book so much. It was very comforting to read. There are a lot of good lessons in it that I needed to be reminded of. After I finished this book I kept thinking about the ending. It is sad, but in such a beautiful way.

This book is deep without trying so much to be so.

wishfulfillment's review against another edition

Honestly, I think this is the smartest book I have ever read or ever will read. I feel that I grew mentally, emotionally, and spiritually as I went through every page. This book is an experience, or more like a course conducted by a really wise person. It has immediately become one of my favorite books of all-time and I can see myself reading it many times in the future.

While this book does contain messages that can be analyzed, I feel that it is also vague enough that it can bring up different things for every reader. It's the kind of literary work that offers themes and motifs, but also evokes something from your unconscious, something that you will get from it that another reader may not (but that other reader will get something that you will not). Truly, I could not ask for anything more than this from a work of fiction. I am extremely impressed and satisfied.

I didn't experience the Little Prince as a child, and thank goodness for that. Many argue that you need to remember your childhood to truly appreciate this book, but I believe the opposite is true: You must have an element of maturity to fully understand this story.
