The Little Prince (Wordsworth Collector's Editions) Hardcover – 7 Sept. 2018

This children’s classic is just the most timeless, exquisite reminder of what is, and should be of value to us.I only have a vague recollection of this book from childhood, so when I saw this beautiful Wordsworth Edition, I decided to read it again. Whilst this is considered a children’s classic, I honestly think there is so much more in this book for adults than for children.The story is of a pilot in a broken down plane in the desert, and of The Little Prince he meets who tells him of his journey across different planets. And, through the innocence and open mind of a child, shows the reader how ridiculous the trivialities and vices made important by adults actually seem.The Little Prince reminds us to open our hearts and minds, to forget our prejudice, and remember the true purpose behind our actions. It is through our sensitivity, our openness to beauty and sadness that we truly feel.A much-needed hour of escapism...and a book I feel I will revisit when overwhelmed with trivialities to remind myself of what is really important.

Brought for my friends son and made a lovely gift.

Such a charming little book - story and illustrations alike. Not quite finished reading yet but needed to stop and commend it. Has made me smile all the way through despite the fact that I would be considered 'very old' to the Little Prince. A chance to forget all the stresses of life for a while and enjoy the beauty and warmth of innocence portrayed through the Little Prince.

Such a wonderful edition of this long loved classic! Beautiful pocket sized edition, great font size and beautiful pictures inside. I’ll truly treasure this book 📖

I've read this book several times over the years and in several languages. I loved this hardcover edition and the quality of the paper and ink. The original drawings remain within the story as well. This edition is perfect for gift giving or for the keeper shelf.
