This summer I’ve review this kind of tale which was published in 1940. It’s the world-famous fairy-tale by the French author Antoine de St-Exupery The Little Prince. As many other fairy-tales the outline of The Little Prince is not very complex. “I” the narrator of the story is a pilot whose plane has something wrong and lands in the Sahara. In this occasion the pilot makes the acquaintance of the little prince a little boy from another planet the Asteroid B612. The little prince has escaped from his tiny planet because he has some quarrel with a rose which grows on his planet. In that case he left his own planet and took an exploration at some neighbor asteroids. On his all-alone journey the little prince meets different kinds of people which includes a king a conceited man a tippler a businessman a lamplighter and a geographer. From these people he gets a conclusion that the grown-ups are very odd. Following the instruction of the geographer he descends in the Sahara on the earth.
