I've read the English version, of course. Right now, slowly trying to get through the French version.

Re-read this in between lessons. I feel for the fox. And geographers do write about eternal things. :)

The Little Prince is a book full of wisdom that speaks to the truth of human nature. I believe that childlike naivety and innocence is a lense which reveals the most about humanity and The Little Prince is an excellent example of this. Not only is the message powerful but the writing is truly beautiful. Everyone should read The Little Prince 5/5 stars

I was amazed at how this beloved book is so full of bullshit. There are no deep thoughts at all, everything just sounds nice at first glance.
I started straight up hating it when it set up a false dichotomy beetween the importance of numbers and other qualities that cannot be expressed in numbers. Mathemathics is not just useful, it can be beautiful too. Too many people, especially children already dislike math, it needs no further negative light on it.
