Really, really lovely. I honestly hadn’t known much about this book prior to reading it so I didn’t have many expectations but I was definitely taken a bit aback at the ending.

So many powerful messages intertwined throughout all of the Little Prince’s stories. Left me feeling a little teary, I’ll admit.

Moderate: Suicide

The Little Prince *seemingly* commits suicide by snake bite at the end of the book. However, whether or not he actually died is not explicitly stated; the narrator describes how his body was nowhere to be found, leading the reader to wonder if the Little Prince’s death wasn’t just some magical means of transporting him back to his home planet. But then, isn’t that just a metaphor? I think it’s up for interpretation, and I wouldn’t prefer it any other way. But yeah, nothing is super concrete about his suicide so take from that what you will.
