BOOK REVIEW AND SUMMARY : THE LITTLE PRINCE

TITLE: THE LITTLE PRINCE  ( LE PETIT PRINCE)

BOOK RATING: FIVE STARS

GENRE: CHILDREN'S FICTION

AUTHOR: ANTOINE DE SAINT EXUPERY

The first ever book I have finished reading in two days. I love the story it gave a lot of things and quotes to think and reflect. What I love this children's book is how to things have been compared how adults think and children's curiosity can be an importance. Knowing the book has been written by the writer from his goal to "FLY and ALL ABOUT FLYING" this book came to his mind to be written and created. One greatest lessons I have learned was to give importance and give value to what life has handed you. The story starts with a prince who lived in a small planet. He was given a flower whom he found lovely. And the flower was extraordinary to his sight. The little prince traveled to its near planets only to find out for himself that "HE MISS HIS PLANET EVEN MORE" The ending of the story was that the pilot has to leave the little prince and go back to earth but the prince assured him that the things that are important and what is not  The little prince met different people on each planet and had conversations with animals as well. He met a tipper, a merchant and a lamp lighter. He even tamed a fox and a snake. As the little prince went back to his own planet one question remains.... How is his life..... 

MY FAVORITE QUOTES FROM THE BOOK

“You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you. Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass, since she's the one I sheltered behind the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three butterflies). Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she's my rose.” 
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“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 most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, they are felt with the heart.” 
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
