People best know French writer and aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupéry for his fairy tale The Little Prince (1943).

He flew for the first time at the age of 12 years in 1912 at the Ambérieu airfield and then determined to a pilot. Even after moving to a school in Switzerland and spending summer vacations at the château of the family at Saint-Maurice-de-Rémens in east, he kept that ambition. He repeatedly uses the house at Saint-Maurice.

Later, in Paris, he failed the entrance exams for the naval academy and instead enrolled at the prestigious l'Ecole des Beaux-Arts. In 1921, Saint-Exupéry, stationed in Strasbourg, began serving in the military. He learned and forever settled his career path as a pilot. After leaving the service in 1923, Saint-Exupéry worked in several professions but in 1926 went back and signed as a pilot for Aéropostale, a private airline that from Toulouse flew mail to Dakar, Senegal. In 1927, Saint-Exupéry accepted the position of airfield chief for Cape Juby in southern Morocco and began his first book, a memoir, called Southern Mail and published in 1929.

He then moved briefly to Buenos Aires to oversee the establishment of an Argentinean mail service, returned to Paris in 1931, and then published Night Flight , which won instant success and the prestigious Prix Femina. Always daring Saint-Exupéry tried from Paris in 1935 to break the speed record for flying to Saigon. Unfortunately, his plane crashed in the Libyan Desert, and he and his copilot trudged through the sand for three days to find help. In 1938, a second plane crash at that time, as he tried to fly between city of New York and Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, seriously injured him. The crash resulted in a long convalescence in New York.

He published Wind, Sand and Stars , next novel, in 1939. This great success won the grand prize for novel of the academy and the national book award in the United States. Saint-Exupéry flew reconnaissance missions at the beginning of the Second World War but went to New York to ask the United States for help when the Germans occupied his country. He drew on his wartime experiences to publish Flight to Arras and Letter to a Hostage in 1942.

Later in 1943, Saint-Exupéry rejoined his air squadron in northern Africa. From earlier plane crashes, Saint-Exupéry still suffered physically, and people forbade him to fly, but he insisted on a mission. From Borgo, Corsica, on 31 July 1944, he set to overfly occupied region. He never returned.

4.8/5.0

Siento que es la primera vez que lo leo, hace un montón que no lo leía y casi no me acordaba (yo juraba que me lo sabía al derecho y al revés) pero pues si, es un gran libro, y siempre me pone muy emocional :(
Esperemos que el principito esté bien y que su cordero no se haya comido su rosa

El Principito
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Tomando en cuenta que es un libro para niños, creo que esta reseña tendrá que escribirla mi yo niña.
El Principito para mi es la explicación a muchas cosas, que de saber desde pequeños, nos facilitarían, tal vez no la vida, pero si el entender la misma, al menos para mi perspectiva, en la que la vida y disfrutar la misma es encontrar y entender el amor, Antoine nos da la clave para esto con una expliación tan sencilla que un niño de 5 años la entendería, siendo una lectura que se disfruta no solo por los dibujos que permiten que imaginar el planeta del Principito sea más facil, sino porque cada pequeño capítulo concluye con una frase clave, que nos recuerda lo que perdemos al crecer, y creo fervientemente, todos deeríamos atesorar por toda nuestra existencia.
Gracias Antoine, por darnos un manual de como aferrarnos a todo eso que nos hace increíbles, sin importar la edad, y aun más importante, por hacer mi libro favorito.

“On ne voit bien qu’avec le cœur. L’essentiel est invisible pour le yeux.”
