In "The Little Prince" the prince has learned that the heart is important in recognizing the things that really matter in life, he is still sad. The prince is lonely and yearns for his rose. The prince fails to see that it is his love which makes the rose special. This love also binds him to the rose. Toward the end of the story, the prince and narrator go find a well. After they find the well and are quenched by the waters, they...

The issue of taming has less to do with what we would associate with a wild animal and more to do with establishing relationships. The fox makes an important statement when he says: "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed." When he says "tame me" he is really saying, relate to me, bond with me, be a part of me, ultimately be responsible for me. In a similar vein, he says "It is the time you...

I agree. Sometimes it seems that if a book includes drawings, especially like those in The Little Prince, it is assumed that the audience should be children. But The Little Prince has far too many complicated allusions and characters for children to understand it. The language is deceptively simple, as well, though I'm not sure if that is true of the original French. Perhaps someone who understands French better than I do could comment on...

In my opinion it is not easy even for adults to grasp it well and comprehensively. I am also wondering what really makes the book so famous in the world.

At first, the Little Prince believes his flower is unique. Then, the sight of the rose garden first leads the prince to believe that his flower is not, in fact, unique. However, with the fox's guidance, the prince realizes that even so many similar flowers cannot stop his own rose from being unique. I believe this is an analogy for relationships everywhere between people. Think of it this way: a boy meets a girl and the girl becomes special to...

The major conflict in the story is arguably both the little prince and the pilot's quests for the ideal, something they learn through their respective journeys is fairly unattainable. The denouement of the story leaves the pilot unable to find the little prince's body, concluding with a fair amount of certainty that he must have returned to his asteroid. The pilot (as narrator) then asks his readers, if they ever visit the desert spot...
