The Little Prince: Puffin Clothbound Classics Hardcover.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (author), Theo Cuffe (translator)
A beautiful clothbound hardback gift edition of one of the world's most beloved stories.
"Look at my planet. It is directly above us. But how far away it is!"
The timeless, enchanting story of the little prince who lives on a tiny planet with three volcanoes and a haughty flower, which he must protect from the baobabs, the bad seeds. The rulers of the other planets he visits all suffer from the cares and stupidities of the everyday world. Only the little prince, through his clear, loving eyes, knows that the simplest of things can be of the utmost importance.
Translated by T. V. F. Cuffe, and with the original illustrations, the story is complete and unabridged.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry , the "Winged Poet," was born in Lyon, France, in 1900. A pilot at twenty-six, he was a pioneer of commercial aviation and flew in the Spanish Civil War and World War II. His writings include The Little Prince, Wind, Sand and Stars, Night Flight, Southern Mail, and Airman's Odyssey. In 1944, while flying a reconnaissance mission for his French air squadron, he disappeared over the Mediterranean.
