Book Reviews of Le Petit Prince (French Language Edition)
Book Review: A great read for all ages
Summary: 4 Stars
The story is probably aimed at a younger audience but is a heart warming story for all ages. The little prince and his friends the little fox, the rose, the sheep and the pilot made for a great story even though I'm an A-Level French student. The french is fairly easy to understand and I would recommend it to any french student who enjoys reading french literature to improve their learning.Book Review: A well written book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is excellent if you are doing French GCSE as it is quite easy to understand. The story contains some funny humour.Book Review: Life-changing book
Summary: 5 Stars
This isn't just a book... it's very hard to describe.. It's a phenomenon. The story spans all generations - while the colourful characters may superficially please the younger audience, the timeless imagery, symbolism and observations of humanity can teach all but the most obtuse. Having said that, there are people who just don't 'get' this book. They want to know why such and such happens, or what the point of this bit was - if you ask the question, you're just not the sort of person who will ever appreciate this story. I have studied English Literature, and Theatre Studies, and have ploughed through all the literary 'greats', and I can say with my hand on my heart that no book I have ever read has even come close to the feeling of 'Le Petit Prince'. Please, please read it.Book Review: an exciting and anticipating novel which should be read!
Summary: 4 Stars
Based on real life pilots during the 1930's, this book descibes how pilots at the time struggled against forces of nature and also solitude to complete the task of delivering mail on time.Saint-Exupery's use of phiosophical and poetic language creates a tense and anxious atmosphere, but also excitement as we are left wondering if Fabien(the pilot) will overcome obstacles in his way. A fantastically magnificent written novel and a very worthwhile read.Book Review: Amusing and relaxing.
Summary: 5 Stars
A good read, and although this is a book designed for chidren, it can be read with as much glee, though probably more, by adults. About a boy from a tiny planet, near Earth, who comes to earth to find a way to save his pet flower, and best friend, the book's flippancy and genial nature make The Little Prince an extremely relieving read; like a breath of fresh air. It is wonderfully written, very short, and contains stimulating ideas.It is almost moving in its naivety. A must read, though I warn you, not too much like the author's other works, which are aimed at a different audience (though they are also very good books!).
