The Little Prince

Beautifully repackaged for Mariner Classics: An elegant new gift edition of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's timeless classic

All grown-ups were once children—although few of them remember it.

“In eighty-four crystalline pages, the Little Prince will learn the meaning of the word ‘ephemeral’ while—thanks to a wise fox—we will edge just a little closer to glimpsing the eternal.” –Stacy Schiff, from the introduction

A pilot crashes his plane in the Sahara Desert. There, far away from civilization, he meets The Little Prince, a strange young boy who left his solitary life on a distant asteroid and traveled to the disenchanted adult world. What unfolds is an unforgettable adventure through the night sky, and a timeless meditation on the power of seeing the world with wonder and clarity.
