Rating: 4/5

Summary:

The story talks about a man that meets a little prince in the desert. The little prince travels through planets and meets several people along his journey, making the man draw his descriptions of most everything.

Strengths:

The story was a light read, it finished so quickly as the flow of the book was nice. The author gives every small character different characteristics that can be seen in people in the real world which makes the story more relatable.

Weaknesses:

The story was relatively short in my opinion, getting the little prince to meet more people and grow to understand them would've been a nice end. The ending was a bit sad but still beautifully delivered .

My Opinion:

Although the story was short it had multiple deep thoughts and meanings, getting to see the perspective of the little prince of different people and places was amusing and refreshing. I think younger kids would enjoy this book and grow to understand the hidden meanings inside of it.
