WORDSWORTH CLASSICS : THE LITTLE PRINCE PB

Translated by Irene Testot-Ferry. The Little Prince is a classic tale of equal appeal to children and adults. On one level it is the story of an airman s discovery, in the desert, of a small boy from another planet – the Little Prince of the title – and his stories of intergalactic travel, while on the other hand it is a thought-provoking allegory of the human condition. First published in 1943, the year before the author s death in action, this translation contains Saint-Exupery s delightful illustrations.
