Few books have been as universally cherished by children and adults alike as this timeless tale. This beautiful collection features quotes from the original translation by Katherine Woods, accompanied by full-colour illustrations. It begins with a pilot stranded in the desert who encounters an extraordinary little fellow who asks him to draw a sheep. Since its publication in 1943, this story has captivated readers worldwide, with this new collection highlighting beloved words of wisdom from Antoine de Saint-Exupery's lyrical text. The quotes explore themes of childhood, sorrow, friendship, and love, offering something for everyone. Antoine de Saint-Exupery (1900-1944), born in Lyons, France, wrote this masterpiece during a two-year self-imposed exile in the United States. Tragically, a year after its publication, he disappeared over the Mediterranean while on a reconnaissance mission for his French air squadron. While best known for this work, Saint-Exupery authored several other classics of world literature. Katherine Woods (1886-1968) produced the original English translation, which remains a favourite among fans and is often regarded as the definitive version. Her poetic translation beautifully captures the enchantment and charm of Saint-Exupery's storytelling, ensuring the tale's enduring legacy.
