“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” 
 ―  Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

The Little Prince written by Antoine de Saint-Exupery is book about a Little Prince who comes from a tiny planet, Asteroid B-612. On his planet is a rose he dearly loves but she very vain and demanding. The rose’s demands were too much for the prince, so he decides to leave and go on a journey to different planets. Throughout the journey he encounters narrow-minded grownups with absurd professions convincing the prince that adults are weird. Finally he lands on Earth where he meets a fox that teaches him a lesson on love and friendship. He then meets up with a pilot and shares his adventures with him and become great friends. The Little Prince longs to return to his planet and desires to see his beloved rose again, and determined to do anything to go back home.

This book was a lovely read. It really taps into the readers imagination and makes one realize the important things in life. We are so caught up in adulting that we tend to forget to have fun and take a break from working. This book really reminds us of our childhood and the wonderful imaginations we had. This book is filled with may symbols and opportunities to dig deeper into the meaning of what is being said throughout the story. A classic packaged with so many philosophical ideas and emotions which makes you look at the world differently.

We all need a little prince to awaken that wild inner child of ours. Because most of the time it is dormant, but when awakened it really brings this sense of happiness, love and life.

Those times when you feel down, look up to the sky and remember behind the clouds the sun is always shinning and there is a galaxy full of stars, stars that are laughing. ~Sara

A book that is really a wholesome little adventure with lessons in every chapter. A must read for all!
