Cover of The Little Prince by By Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Translated by Richard Howard

The Little Prince

by By Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Translated by Richard Howard

A pilot stranded in the desert awakes one morning to see, standing before him, the most extraordinary little fellow. "Please," asks the stranger, "draw me a sheep." And the pilot realizes that when life's events are too difficult to understand, there is no choice but to succumb to their mysteries. He pulls out pencil and paper... And thus, begins this wise and enchanting fable that, in teaching the secret of what is really important in life, has changed forever the world for its readers. A beautiful and at times heartbreaking meditation on human nature. The Little Prince is one of the best-selling and most translated books of all time, universally cherished by children and adults alike, and Richard Howard's translation of the beloved classic beautifully reflects Saint-Exupéry's unique and gifted style, bringing the English text as close as possible to the French in language, style, and spirit.
