Le Petit Prince, at first sight, seems to be a kind of fairy tale.

However one should not be fool by the apparent simplicity of the writing.

In fact through metaphor, and through a simple writing symbolizing the simplicity of life, St Exupéry shows us that the beauty, the magic of life always comes from simplicity.

This fairy tale is not address to children, but to the child (i should say the god) who is still living inside of you, yelling for a rebirth (or for some of us a  complete new birth).

Why humans should be hiding themselves behind complexity, while honesty give you a true insight of the universal "nature" ?

I crave to tell you so much more about this wonderful book, but it would be a crime to give you my point of view of a story, that is suppose, i think, to give you a chance to have your own, simple opinion on life.
