Features: The Little Prince is a fairy tale of great significance in the history of contemporary French literature. The Little Prince is an extraordinary and transcendent fairy, originally living on the small planet B612. Due to the vanity of a rose, he damaged his self-esteem, so he left the planet and began his journey through space. He visited six planets: the king on the first planet never gives up his dignity; the second planet is inhabited by only one vain person; the third planet has a drunkard who uses alcohol to numb himself; the fourth planet has a businessman who wants to deposit stars in a bank to claim them as his own. These experiences made the Little Prince feel that adults are too abnormal, too lacking in imagination, and too devoid of love that connects all things in the universe. Thus, he began to miss the rose on his small planet. With the help of a fox, he found the spring of life in the desert with a stranded pilot, which allowed him to return to his own planet once again.
