A Critical Book Review on The Little Prince
It’s the second time that I have read the book called The Little Prince. Although I am no longer a child, I still prefer this kind of fairy tales. “Translated into more than 250 languages and dialects, selling over a million copies per year with sales totaling more than 140 million copies worldwide, The Little Prince has become one of the best-selling books ever published, whose total circulation is only behind the Bible. And it can be regarded as the miracle in the history of publishment.
From my viewpoint, The Little Prince is not only for children, but also for adults who have ever owned playfulness. And it’s more a tragedy than a fairy tale. The leading character in the book is a lovely little prince with blond hair. He conquers a great many readers’ hearts by its unique charm. Meanwhile, the narrator of the story is a pilot forced to land in the Sahara because of something wrong with his plane.
Compared with some other long novels, I think, the outline of The Little Prince is relatively simple and clear.
The protagonist and the narrator made the acquaintance of each other in Sahara when the little prince arrived on the earth following the instruction of a geographer. Gradually, they became good friends. The lovely prince told the pilot a lot of his precious experiences in different planets. Once upon the time, the prince had lived a quiet life in Asteroid B-612, a planet hardly any bigger than he was. Then one day, he left it because of a beautiful and fragile rose. On his all-alone journey in six different planets, he encountered a great variety of people, including an arrogant king, an avaricious businessman, a pedantic lamplighter, a geographer and so on. From these different people, the little prince felt that the adults were very strange and odd.
Here I think the author showed us the emptiness, blindness and ignorance of grown-ups from the perspective of children. What’s more, he also told us the inner loneliness and confusion of adults.
When the little prince reached the earth, he also met with a fox. The story's essence is contained in the lines uttered by the fox to the little prince. The fox solved his confusion of love which the fragile rose had brought to him. In addition, the fox made him understand that love meant responsibility and mercy, without it, anything in life would be meaningless.
Indeed, love is a magic and complicated thing. It can make us feel upset and painful. At the same time, it can also help us escape from loneliness. As the little prince said:“when you look up at the sky at night, since I’ll be living on one of them, since I’ll be laughing on one of them, for you it’ll be as if all the stars that can laugh!” （P322,The Little Prince）
When finishing reading the novel, my heart is deeply touched again. What’s more, I start to reflect on lives of grown-ups. Nowadays, adults are always occupied with their work and study, and put themselves in the cruel competitions. They all want to succeed, sometimes they even abandon their principles and become selfish, blind and avaricious. How terrible it is! What I want to stress is that the essence of things can only be understood by our hearts. We everyone should cherish our friendship and love rather than temporary things such as wealth and fame.
