Book Reviews of The Little Prince
Book Review: A Book for Everyone and Anywhere
Summary: 5 Stars
This book can be read by readers of all ages and it is fiction. The story shows the reader what is really important in life. It also has changed the world for its readers. The Little Prince is a very good book, and once you start reading the only time you will put it way is when you finish it. It also shows that the Little Prince was unhappy when he left his home. It is a happy book, but also is sad because of a yellow flash. It also shows how many adults do not know anything about a child's world. It was truly a very good book. I hope everyone that reads this book will enjoy it as much as I do.
Book Review: A Book to Read for a Lifetime
Summary: 5 Stars
This book gets 6 stars! Antoine de SaintExupery, though writing at a level at which children can comprehend the plot, delves deep into a social and psychological discussion regarding the human experience. He has a profound understanding of the way 'adults' (modern society) incorrectly view the world, its citizens, and what they have to offer. Lessons taught by this book range from personal relationships to business, touching on the subjects of guilt, greed, power, and love. While all of these topics are thoroughly discussed, you never feel as if you're being lectured or hit over the head with symbolism. So much is buried between the lines that one reading of this book will not suffice to gain the infinite wisdom it possesses. Read it as a coming-of-age story for society: once every few years for the rest of your life. This simple, 96 page story about a little boy speaks volumes louder than you could imagine.Book Review: A Good Book
Summary: 5 Stars
The first time I read this I enjoyed following The Little Prince on his journey to Earth. The second time though, I realized the true meaning of friendship. This is a book that can help teach yourself a lesson.Book Review: A Great Gift
Summary: 5 Stars
A neat book to give as a gift for a gifted student.Book Review: A Guide Book for All (especially grown-ups)
Summary: 5 Stars
This has become the standard guide book for behavior. First read as an adult, I now expect any new friend to have read it. Also great for reading aloud, especially while traveling, whether kids or adults are in the audience. The language is poetic and easily accessed, even in translation. The lessons in behavior are universal, kind, as well as thought provoking.Honestly, would you be friends with anyone who hasn't read
