“A gift to young readers with adventurous, poetic souls.” — Kirkus Reviews (STARRED REVIEW)

“A haunting ode to a complex individual.” — Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)

A lyrical and luminous picture book biography of The Little Prince creator Antoine de Saint-Exupery. 

For more than eighty years, The Little Prince has captured the imaginations of readers around the world. This poetic picture book biography tells the story of its celebrated author and illustrator, Antoine de Saint-Exupery.

As a child, Antoine dreamed of flying. His dream was realized when he became a pilot, first serving France during World War I, then working as an international mail courier. As he wrote letters to his family describing the foreign countries he visited, he soon discovered that writing contained its own sense of adventure. His stories showed a childlike fascination with the world, culminating with The Little Prince, one of the best-selling books ever published.

Bimba Landmann’s spirited text, inspired by the works of Saint-Exupéry, along with her dreamy, luminous illustrations, follows Antoine’s life from childhood through the military to his writing career, wonderfully capturing his spirit and pursuit of adventure.
