The Journey of The Little Prince
by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
This book is built in an excellent way to discuss with children the different types of people in the world and what to think after meeting a specific kind of character - advice is given by the little prince along with a good explanation about the type of person he met on his journey and discussion questions are asked — this is a great idea —! Though for me this version of the book has been simplified too much — it is looking only at teaching children about the different types of people in the world and what is good or bad about that — and focuses on the characters who are too preoccupied with wealth, power, and technology, missing and the important things in life.— I do feel that this book is well set up for discussion with children about the topics of :
Power and its usefulness
Appearance and beauty
Wealth
Knowledge and experience
It briefly mentions at the end that clearly seeing with one’s heart is important — but it goes deeper than that in the original book —
Where the main theme that is most important is is the importance of looking beneath the surface to find the real truth and meaning of a thing. This version of the book forgets to mention what the important things in life are —beauty that surrounds us everyday , love, and friendship. And how we forget to invest the time in loving others and noticing the small wonders of the world.
