The Little Prince

Antoine De Saint-Exup�ry . Rupa Publications India . English

One of the most published and translated books in the world, The Little Prince fascinates the reader with its story of a pilot marooned in the Sahara after something goes wrong with his plane, and a little man with golden hair who has �fallen� to earth by chance.As the pilot tries to repair his plane, the little man requests him to draw a sheep as well as a box to keep the sheep in, so that it may not harm a flower he cares for�and therein begins a friendship that leads us to re-examine the many things we take for granted in our everyday life.Part fantasy, part fable, this is written as much for children as for adults, bringing home the message �what is essential, is invisible to the eye�.
