The Little Prince

A positively stunning edition of a great book. It’s a teeny tiny book, but given the length of the story itself, it feels rather fitting. I bought this as a gift, and wrote in the cover as it makes such a wonderful keepsake. After giving it away I was desperate for my own copy and was luckily gifted it for my birthday. I’d definitely recommend this edition for anyone with sentimental attachment to books.

Very beautifully made with the golden sides which I always love seeing on books. And the embossed design beneath the sleeve is gorgeous. Story is a classic and has an understandable flow, so for me, the translation is good.Illustrations are in black and white yet still worth the buy regardless of the colour. I'm just glad there are illustrations in the book, otherwise it'd be pointless to buy and it wouldn't give the satisfaction to the whole reading experience.I'm sure this edition is aimed more at an older audience i.e. young adults and up, due to the beautiful design and pocket size fit. Therefore for me, as a 20+y.o., it's perfect.So if you, (or someone else you may want to buy it for) are a Young Adult+ looking to treasure a beloved classic book for the child-at heart within then this is a recommended choice.

There are few books in the world, which fits into TBR list of both age groups whether a child or an adult and "The little prince" is one of those few.The book starts with the narrator, stuck in the middle of the sahara desert because his aeroplane get crashed and while repairing his aeroplane, he meets a little boy "The Little prince" originally an inhabitant of asteroid B-612.And then an adventure starts which will not allow you to remove your eyes from this book which has so many beautiful illustrations, fun elements, wisdom which will leave you thoughtful about your own nature.The little prince tells the narrator about his planet where he left behind three volcanoes and a rose and also he tells about his visit to other planets where he met a string of oddballs, a king, a conceited men, a drunkard, a lamplighter, a geographer.Well, its all about his visit to different planets and his love for his own planet, his meeting with different characters and his each meeting has a message for us raising question on our thoughts, values and perceptions.This book is a deep reflection on human nature, the contradiction between children's and grown up's perspectives about life, friendship, love, relationship, values, mistakes, importance.This will leave you doubtful about your own perspectives on various things.You should definitely read this, because all we need is clarity and reality :)

Such a lovely little book, I bought 3 and I am extremely happy with the quality. Like many others I love the Little Prince so much I’ve shared many different editions over the years. This is the nicest for the price range and I love the gold detailing, it adds a neat touch of sophistication that is sure to be a winner especially among my female friends. I’ll definitely be checking out the rest of the collection.

A classic that will continue to enchant I’m Sure. What pleased me so much when this arrived was the book itself. The edges are gilded and it has a dust jacket as illustrated above, however when the dust jacket is removed you will find a pale blue cloth cover to the book beautifully embossed.This little book is a classic and this edition be it a gift or for yourself is as beautiful on the outside as the inside.
