Wendy WenS3-G2English literatureFeb 19Book review of Le Petit PrinceLe Petit Prince, writer named Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Although book is not the first book of the writer, this book is not only full of sediments of the writer’s life and emotion, but also talking about the essence of human life. Le Petit Prince is a fairy tale;Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s writing style is different from other writers.Those books that written by him are portrayal records of his thought and action. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s family was a traditional Catholic noble family. His parents were noble, his father worked in bank, and his mother was a housewife who has talentedin music and arts. The reason of why he wrote Le Petit Prince is no matter his family background, it is related with his identity. Antoine de Saint-Exupérywasa pilot. That is why the protagonist in Le Petit Prince is a pilot. Le Petit Prince, the number of pages is 89, published by Harcourt, the price is about ten dollars.Le Petit Prince is a story talks about six years ago a pilot landing in the Sahara Desert caused by aircraft fault then he met the little prince. The pilot retailed adventures of the little prince in six different planets, the little prince met the king, vain man, drunkard, a businessman, lamplighter, geographer, snake, desert flower with three petals, a rose garden, switchman, trader, fox and the pilot himself.This book is a fairy tale, so that its interested audience is children.In my opinion, Le Petit Prince is a good book. The writer used eyes of child to expose desires and pragmatic in adult world. My theme of this book review is that sometimes parents think their way is benefit to us, but they do not considertheir way is not suitable for us or it is not we want. Moreover, we think we are become knowledgeable when we growing up; the adult knows everything. Unfortunately, it is wrong, when we grow up; we probably forget our original intention. And something immaterial, we only can understand by usin
