‘The Little Prince,’ not the little prince (I find the little prince funny anyway) is one book I find particularly humorous. The humor may not be so glaring, and this makes most of the events there even more hilarious. The characters from ‘The Little Prince‘down to the snake- all of them, hilarious.
Originally titled‘Le Petit Prince’, and primarily set in a desert in Africa, the story of ‘The Little Prince‘has been translated- apart from English to German, Spanish, and Latin.
The little prince, on his way, spends time on about seven other planets, including the Earth- where he spends his time in a desert. Part of the story also takes place where the boy lives. This place is, however, not described explicitly by the author like he did, the other planets and the desert on Earth. It is a story, quite short, but with many l...
The author writes in very simple English. I only found one word unfamiliar in the course of reading this book. Don’t get me wrong, books should make people open their dictionaries to learn, and books should enrich one’s vocabulary. However, it is a complete turn-off, having to check the dictionary at every turn. It interrupts communication, and an ...
The characterization took a turn, one different from what I thought it would be. From chapter one, one would think the boy to be the main character, alas, the prince comes along and assumes that role. The boy narrates. Both are the two main characters in the book, but, the little prince is the protagonist.
The use of imagery in the book is commendable, and so is the use of illustrations, though obviously not the expert standard (because the boy himself admits that he really never did develop his drawing skills because that potential was stifled before it could bloom). The author’s use of adjectives gives a clearer picture of things- how each characte...
‘The Little Prince‘shines a light on the things society ignores, chasing after shadows instead. An instance I already used about two or three times- people buying pills in order not to drink water, only to spend the time saved, by the spring- means that grown-ups have lost touch with reality. At best, it is hilarious, a thing to do, and at worst, i...
I like how every character is given life, some much more than the world, as it is, would allow them to have- the fox, the snake, the flowers. Even the characters who were only talked about, are given more ‘personalities’ than they would otherwise not have- the sheep, the baobabs, the boa constrictors. Another thing I found quite funny, is the dedic...
The curtains are drawn when the ovation is at its loudest. Things get quite tense towards the end of the book (not the story, because we would not want the story to end there) when the little prince is bitten by a snake and has to leave at the same spot he appeared in, exactly a year ago. The goodbyes. Very difficult. It reminds us of what happened...
