This poetic and philosophical tale is an editorial phenomenon that is the most widely read and best-known work of French literature in the world. According to Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince is a children's book written for grown-ups: its reading levels offer pleasure and food for thought for readers of all ages, and everyone can see what suits them: a fairy tale or a philosophical tale. The author, an aviator, falls with his plane in the middle of the Sahara desert. While he is trying to repair his plane, a little boy appears and asks him to draw a sheep. The author also learns that this "little prince" comes from an asteroid where he has left three volcanoes and a rose. On Earth, he was able to talk with a fox who taught him that, to know, one must "tame", and that this makes things and people unique. "The essential is invisible to the eye," he says.
Published first in the United States in 1943 and then in France in 1946, The Little Prince is Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's best-known work.
