The Little Prince

The Little Prince 

The Little Prince is first of all a children's book^^. A children's book which is a must read for adults. Little Prince is a very simple books and within its simplicity dwells its beauty and most importantly....its message to the readers. This messages will surely be useful to see life in a different way and it touches the soul.

This is a work of fiction that will make the readers grasp important thoughts while experiencing the magical imaginative pictures that the author is showing through the journeys of the little prince.

what is so catching with the story is making the adult readers discover some ideas through the perspective of a child which is portrayed by the little prince, an inquisitive boy with witty remarks but is the truth.

I think that this book is written not for children nor adults, it is for both. A book that will help children understand adults and vice versa.

With the pilot and Little Prince's  help, we readers discover something, and that something is not new, it is old and common, it is ourselves. Our own very selves that we lost in our hurried travel to reach our goal. Goals that are sometimes unknown and unpredictable and through time our perspective of what is essential and important changes because as we grow our priorities changes and one of that priorities is to survive this civilized jungle and in the process we sometimes lose ourselves and the things we used to do or loved to do that reminds us of who we are-our humble beginnings.
