This book is a weird one to rate. Reading it as an adult, I really enjoyed it. (Keeping in mind that it's really dated and some things definitely don't hold up.) I wouldn't recommend it for kids or teens though, based on the ending. So 3 stars? 4? 3.5? Hard to say.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed reading this book. It was so engaging despite the fact that I'm an adult. I just loved the way the story weaved together.

This was such a sweet and charming little short story. Even though I didn't understand all of it I still enjoyed and appreciated this little book!
This book explores various adult professions from a child's perspective. It showed the Little Prince's travels to various planets and places exploring and meeting different people always asking questions and looking for answers. It amazes me that a book written 80 years ago can be so relevant and reflect the world how it is today.
This is such a sweet and charming book for children and adults alike! Can not recommend this book enough!

reread, i'm not on board with some of the messages and since i read a version from 1956 it still had the n-word in it.
but i still like the book a lot, and i cried a little at the end.
