About the Author

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (Lyon, 1900 - Mar Mediterráneo, 1944), fue un afamado aviador y escritor francés, mejor conocido por su clásico juvenil El Principito. Su primer cuento vio la luz en 1926, justo el año en que comenzó su carrera de piloto, disciplinas que a la postre hermanaría en los libros de gran éxito: Correo del sur (1928), Vuelo nocturno (1931) y Tierra de hombres (1939). Tras el inicio de la Segunda Gran Guerra y al caer su patria de origen en dominio alemán, se aposta en Nueva York, donde escribe el controversial Piloto de guerra (1942) y El Principito (1943), un cuento infantil.



Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (Lyon, 1900 - Mediterranean Sea, 1944), was a famous French aviator and writer, best known for his youth classic The Little Prince. His first story was released in 1926, the very year in which he began his career as a pilot, disciplines that he would eventually combine in the highly successful books: Correo del sur (1928), Flight at night (1931) and Tierra de men (1939). After the start of the Second Great War and when his homeland of origin fell under German rule, he settled in New York, where he wrote the controversial War Pilot (1942) and The Little Prince (1943), a children's story.

Editorial Reviews

Gr 5-8-This ageless classic presents readers with a number of adult-world absurdities via a child's planet-hopping adventure. Through the words of an omniscient narrator, the Little Prince recalls a number of puzzling encounters with adults. On the first planet, the Little Prince meets a king in such dire need of loyalty that he only gives orders he knows will be followed. On another planet, he describes a businessman who constantly counts the stars, which he proudly claims as his, since they belong to no one else. Later, he meets a geographer who is much too important to leave his office and relies on explorers to describe the world to him. By recounting his adventures to our narrator, the Little Prince attempts to highlight the importance of the moment and finding beauty in nature. Thoughtful readers will appreciate the story's messages and will reflect on life while reading it. The author's original ink and watercolor sketches are carefully placed throughout, providing support for struggling readers. The translated text is true to the original and very readable. This gem should be in every bookstore, public library, and middle school collection.
