The Little Prince

---

The story is narrated by a pilot who has crashed his plane in the Sahara Desert. While struggling to repair his aircraft, he encounters the Little Prince—a young boy who has traveled to Earth from a tiny asteroid called B-612.

As the pilot works, the Prince recounts his travels across other small planets, where he met various "grown-ups" who represent the absurdities of adult life: a king who wants to rule everything, a conceited man who craves admiration, and a businessman who is too busy counting stars to appreciate them. His journey eventually leads him to Earth, where he meets a fox who teaches him the most famous lesson of the book: "One sees clearly only with the heart. What is essential is invisible to the eye."
