I haven’t read the English version of the book, and I probably won’t because I feel I wouldn’t have that same enjoyment when I read the original version.Īnyways, the book is intended for little kids because it is a children’s book. In addition, it helped that I already knew a little bit of French (took French class…) so some of the words weren’t unfamiliar to me. The book is very short and half of the pages consist of mostly pictures and very little words, so it wasn’t that difficult. I had to use my French dictionary and all other translation tools to have better comprehension. I actually read The Little Prince in French which of course was a challenge that I took. His personal odyssey culminates in a voyage to Earth and further adventures. With a timeless charm it tells the story of a little boy who leaves the safety of his own tiny planet to travel the universe, learning the vagaries of adult behaviour through a series of extraordinary encounters. ![]()
