After a forced landing in the Sahara, the author reminisces his meeting with a most extraordinary small person. "If you please, draw me a sheep...." And so begins the fascinating history of the Little Prince.
Living alone on a tiny planet (Asteroid B-612), enjoying up to forty-four sunsets in one day, and caring for a single flower unlike any in the entire galaxy, the Little Prince sets off on an adventure across the planets in which he becomes wise to the way of grown-ups and to the secret of what is truly important in life.
