The Little Prince (French:"Le Petit Prince"), first published in 1943, is a novella and the most famous work of the French aristocrat writer, poet and pioneering aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900–1944, Mort pour la France).
The novella is both the most read and most translated book in the French language,and was voted the best book of the 20th century in France.Translated into more than 250 languages and dialects,selling over a million copies per year with sales totaling over 200 million copies worldwide,it has become one of the best-selling books ever published.
The reader is introduced to the narrator who, as a young boy, drew a boa constrictor eating an elephant.However, he is discouraged from drawing when all adults who look at his picture see a hat, instead. The narrator attempts to explain what his first picture depicts by drawing another one clearly showing the elephant, disturbing the adults as a result.As such, he decides to become a pilot, which eventually leads to a crash in the Sahara desert.
