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.

 I have never read this classic before and I thought it was finally time I do.

There isn't really much to say besides, I found the artwork and story fun. It was such a carefree story. A great book to read between novels with more heavy topics.

why did I never read this as a kid?
