Um príncipe que quer povoar o Mundo com Princesas e Príncipes

P.S.: em português o livro intitula-se "Para um principezinho - conselhos para uma vida feliz"

A real jewel!! I loved it. It's simple and yet tricky at the same time. One can open any page any time and just read it - ya! Besides, it's very quick to read because it has limited content. Each page talks about something different. And one page contains only a few line. It's just so true & to the point. The tag-line is #We need more princes# It inspires the reader to become a true prince!

For those who’s trying so hard to start reading, I bet you can finish this book within a blink and be happy with your achievement✨
Referring to the book title, it is literally a book of advice and there’s tid bit details about the author that I found interesting. The word ‘prince’ wasn’t only referring to the author’s title but actually used to symbolise the ideal person that one should strive to be. It would be better if it have more than 127 pages because of course, when we talk about “life” I am expecting more of an all-embracing advice instead of a general ones.
However, this book is initially written by the author for his growing son which explains the concern I’ve highlighted above. I think it is also more of a parental book too. Pardon me for the absent of experience, but I think this will be a good introductory book to cultivate discussions about manners and general life lessons too. Kids with their curious nature will have A LOT to ask while reading this and parents can further explain/share their experiences.

Done! for today #bookfairiesoffline
This book full of kind, humble and romantic souls🙈🙈❤️❤️
This book was only meant to be one single resting on his son bedside table then he decided to make all the “notes” into a book.

He such an humble Prince.

Sin duda una recopilación de consejos simples, pero reales y poderosos, creo Alexi ha logrado plasmar de una manera espléndido toda su sabiduría y aprendizajes en este libro. Muy recomendado
