Few literary works like The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry have managed to inspire such strong and unforgettable emotions while dealing with themes like the meaning of life, love, and friendship with such a simple and immediate language that can be understood by readers of all ages. This edition has been abridged to reach younger readers and is enriched by the illustrations of Manuela Adreani, an artist who, with her rare sensitivity, is able to recreate the fantastic journey of the Little Prince as he sets out to discover the universe.
