to celebrate 80 years of
The Little Prince.
In 2023,
The Little Prince will celebrate 80 years of unsurpassed success. It is one of the most published and translated books in the world (by some accounts, second only to
The Bible). Never before have its themes of loneliness, loss, love, and friendship been more relevant. While
The Little Prince is packaged for children, it is appreciated and celebrated by all ages. This edition includes the entire, unmodified, original text by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, first published in English after his exile to the U.S. in 1943. The story is accompanied by exclusive illustrations from Mondo Mombo, a well-known, Italian children's-art firm founded by Claudia Bordin.
