Intensément impliqué dans les premières années de l´aviation commerciale, ses romans sont intimement liés à ses expériences en tant que pilote. Employé par la compagnie Latécoère, il s´en chargera du courrier de Toulouse au Sénégal, parcours qui se prolongera jusqu´en Amérique du Sud en 1929. À partir de 1932, il se consacrera à l´écriture et au journalisme, ce qui l´amènera au Vietnam, à Moscou et à l´Espagne de la guerre civile. Pendant la deuxième Guerre Mondiale, il deviendra l´une des voix de la Résistance et à New-York il essaiera de faire entrer les américains dans le conflit. Au printemps 44, il rejoindra une patrouille de reconnaissance basé en Sardaigne, puis en Corse, et le 31 juillet de cette année son avion disparaîtra en mer et ne sera retrouvé qu´en 2000. « Le Petit Prince » (1943) fut écrit à New-York et publié avec ses propres aquarelles. En France sera publié posthumément en 1946, chez Gallimard. Le récit raconte la rencontre entre un aviateur, dont l´avion tombe en panne au bel milieu du désert du Sahara et, pendant qu´il essaie de le réparer, un petit garçon s´approche de lui et lui demande de dessiner un mouton. C´est ainsi que commence un des livres les plus humains et les plus touchants qu´un lecteur peut espérer trouver dans son expérience en tant que tel. Review: Wonderful Edition in Original Language - I'm thrilled to have found this 2013 edition, which beautifully preserves the original 1946 French text. Reading "Le Petit Prince" in its native language is a rare treat, and this copy is in excellent condition. It includes the author's iconic illustrations, and they truly come to life against the high-quality, thick paper that gives the book a premium, tactile feel. The book itself is really well-designed and a joy to read. The layout is super clean, and the font size is perfect. It's honestly the best way to experience this classic philosophical fairy tale for any age, exactly as the author intended. Review: Très Beau Livre pour Tous et Toujours - I read this book first for a high school French class and decided to revisit it a few years later. Once I opened the first page, I couldn't put it down. This is a heartbreakingly beautiful story about love, friendship, and innocence. When I first read it as a freshman, I couldn't believe I was being forced to read a book for "babies," and I skipped many of the pages and passages that I couldn't understand. However, this book is exceptionally powerful and goes much deeper than the average children's novel. It has important lessons and reminders for someone of any age, and as I've come back to it over the years, I've found new ones each time. There is an unexplainable magic and warmth that surrounds this book, and I would sincerely recommend it to anyone. There are benefits to buying this book in French, if you are able. The English translation is nice, but the French seems to be much more "complete" and satisfying. It reads like it was meant to be read. This book is also fantastic for language learning. I first read it in my third year of studying French, and while I found it to be difficult at the time, I was surprised by how much I recognized and was able to understand. All in all, in English or in French, this book is a classic for a reason, and I would encourage everyone to discover its spell for themselves. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #7,292,050 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #7,789 in Literature & Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 18,272 Reviews | ## Images ![Le Petit Prince (French Edition) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31Ust93tqnL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful Edition in Original Language *by K***Z on March 16, 2026* I'm thrilled to have found this 2013 edition, which beautifully preserves the original 1946 French text.
