The Little Prince Around the World by Corinne Delporte
2.0
The little Prince's rose has a cold and to cheer her up the Prince travels around the word to bring back photographs to cheer her up.
Whilst this book is beautifully illustrated, fun and educational for both children and adults I found it hard to read. Maybe I was expecting it to be more of a story, but I felt that it read more like bullet points than a story time book.
Each page was very fact heavy and did not include much about the prince's journey and how he was learning these things about the places he visits from his point of view. I feel that this would have helped the littlest readers enjoy this even if they couldn't fully understand the facts included, whilst still educating the older readers.
I believe I would have enjoyed it more had I known to expect the format it is written in and for this reason I would still recommend this book, but manage expectations whilst doing so. This would be well suited as a learning resource in an educational setting.
Thank you to Chouette Publishing, CrackBoom! Books, and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
