This unique and lovely novella written by Antoine de Saint-Exupery, a French novelist and a professional air pilot has been a classic read for both, adult and children, for more than seven decades. The story begins with the narration of an air pilot, who tells us how a forced landing of his plane in the Sahara desert resulted in his meeting with a small man, whom he calls as the little prince. The little prince tells him many wise & entrancing stories about his home where he lives such as a little asteroid with three volcanoes and a haughty flower. He also tells the narrator about other planets, their rulers and his journey to many such different asteroids where he has to fight against the bad, strange and conceited bad elements, which makes him a delightful, memorable character.
