Summary
Available for the first time in an edition for young adults, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's classic story, The Little Prince, beloved by readers of all ages, comes to life in a format perfect for teen readers.
“I’m glad I was asked to be the ambassador for this book.” —Gregory Maguire
“A lovely story…which covers a poetic, yearning philosophy—not the sort of fable that can be tacked down neatly at its four corners but rather reflections on what are real matters of consequence.” —New York Times Book Review
At first glance, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s 1943 classic The Little Prince—with its winsome illustrations of a boy prince and his tiny planet—appears to be a children’s fairy tale. It doesn’t take long, however, to discover that it speaks to readers of all ages. This pocket-sized edition, perfect for teens, features Saint-Exupéry’s original full-color illustrations and the unabridged text, a reader’s guide, and a introduction by Gregory Maguire. Rediscover—or share—the magic!
This title has been selected as a Common Core Text Exemplar (Grades 4-5, Stories)
First Edition Identification
The first edition of The Little Prince was published in New York in 1943 by Reynal & Hitchcock. The American edition preceded the French or English editions, making it the sole means of obtaining a signed copy of the book. A limited number of 525 signed copies were produced, bound in salmon cloth, and stamped in maroon. Shortly after the book's publication, the author, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, a professional aviator, disappeared during a mission for the French Free Air Force over the Mediterranean Sea. As a result, this first edition became one of the most coveted limited editions and rarely surfaces in the marketplace. Katherine Woods translated the book from French, and the author himself provided the illustrations. The original dust jacket bears the price of $2.00 and includes the publisher's address on Madison Avenue, New York, on the lower front flap.
