Summary: je me suis amusé avec ce livre
Review: It's difficult for me to write a complete review, as I am still an inexperienced French student. Having read the book as a child (in English, of course), I can rant and rave about the storyline, the message, the fact that it can be enjoyed on different levels by children and adults.What stands out to me about this version is that it's in the original French, and what seemed bizzare in English works well in the author's native tongue. This is one of the best books ever written, and if the option exists, reading it in French would be the best option.

Summary: Learn how important your rose is
Review: It's kind of "all I needed to learn about relationships I learned from the fox". The fox teaches us how to build the relationships that give meaning to our life and to the common things. All adults need to read this book now and again to cure themsekves from the cynicism that modern life creates.

Summary: Great Story For All ages
Review: Le Petit Prince is a great story for adults and kids alike. Kids can read this book and see it as only a story about a little boy from another planet who wants to find somone who understands him. Adults can read this book and see deeper meanings to what is happening. If you dig into the story you find things in this book dealing with issues we have to face. It's a great book and I would recommend it to any of my friends but I would have to tell them to get the English version. I would prefer to read the French version.

Summary: Magical
Review: Le Petit Prince is a magical story of a pilot and the Prince he meets in the middle of a desert. The pilot, an adult, listen attentively as the Prince, seemingly a child; tells of his trip to Earth and the people he meets along the way. The Prince has journey to Earth from an asteroid floating in space. He tells the pilot of people such as a dedicated lamplighter living on an asteroid where night and day last only moments. He also tells the pilot about the asteroid and about how sad he feels as he watches the sunset and then, watches it yet again, until he finally feels better. The pilot and the Prince then make a journey together in search of a well. Finally, the Prince must leave Earth to return to his asteroid and his own special rose. The story ends with a simple request to the reader. Although Le Petit Prince may seem to be nothing more than a simple and beautiful fairy tale it is really so much more. It is a story for children, to be sure, but it is also a story for people of all ages who have not quite grown up. But who is not quite grown up? If you have read Le Petit Prince you will realize that a grownup is a person, who, even if there is a pitcher of water sitting in front of him, will choose, instead to walk to a fountain and take a drink. This book has many things to say that are very important for all of us to hear, however, most of us never find the time to listen to the lessons it teaches. There is magic in this little book: in the fox, in the rose, in the asp in the sunsets and most of all, in the Prince's parting gift to the pilot. The journey of the Prince and the timeless themes this book presents are woven together into an immensely beautiful story. This is a sweet but profound little book that might change the way you look at things and live your life, if only just a little.

Summary: A novel that adults and children will cherish forever!
Review: Le Petit Prince, published more than half a century ago, endures into the twenty-first century as a beautifully written children's novel and a powerful philosophic work that speaks volumes about love and friendship. Written by Antoine de Saint-Exupery during World War II, Le Petit Prince was published as a children's story, but soon became recognized the world over as a profound introspective statement. By using the novel as a type of allegory, Saint-Exupery was able to write a commentary on life as he had lived it. The novel takes readers on a fantastic journey through the universe that, by the end, will have even the most hardened soul in tears.
The novel, although simply written, is not simple in style or in taste. Saint-Exupery uses powerful metaphors, similes, and analogies to address the very abstract themes of love and friendship. By personifying many of the personality traits that make up a true friend, Saint-Exupery makes these complicated issues so simple that even a child could understand. This is, of course, what Saint-Exupery had in mind all along.
I loved Le Petit Prince and have read many of my favorites parts to members of my family and just about anyone else who will listen. That is the magic of this novel. Beautifully written and illustrated, it will have you coming back to relive the adventures of the little prince time and time again. Through the eyes of Antoine de Saint-Exupery, this often-troubling world becomes a universe filled with the possibilities of true friendship and lasting love.

Summary: Read it and you will never become an adult.
Review: Sometimes we feel a need inside us and we try to find something to feel that need. Because we visualize ourselves in a very complicated manner we try to understand ourselves as complicated beings and thats why we can not fill the need. Is as if we are looking for gold in a salt mine. What we do not understand is that life is full of those things we are looking for and they can be found anywhere from the ant on our sugar to the sun who no matter what is shinning for us everyday. That is what I learned from The Little Prince a piece of life that if someone calls it a book is because it was read with just the eyes. Thank you Linda for giving me a piece of life condensed in papers and to Saint-Exupery for closing my eyes to an apparent reality and opening my heart to the universe.

Summary: Nothing makes me angrier...
Review: than seeing this book in the children's section at the store! Even Amazon recommends this story for "9 to 12 year-olds". What nonsense. A beautifully moving story to illustrate a sound and healthy philosophy. A friend of mine, who enjoys philosophy, recommended that I read "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance"... OK, a little convoluted, but OK... I, in turn, recommended Le Petit Prince, which can be read in an hour and is far less taxing on the brain. If you have already perfected the simple way of life put forth in this book, then you have every right to condemn my previous statement- but I don't think that very many people have attained that level of "Zen"- or whatever you want to call it.
