Little Prince’s Comment

I think the Little Prince is abeautiful book. I didn’t read any boks, it is my first book. I really love this book and I think that everyone should read it at least one time in their lives. It isn’t a juvenile book. It is a short tale full of meaning. Children will love it and adults will love it all the same time. There are a lot of lessons that we get in the story. It shows how a child view the world that we live in. I never thought that such a small book could teach me so much. It could be taken in so many ways from so many different perspective. I really appreciate this book. For example this messeage is very impressive: “It is the time you have wasted on your rose that makes your rose so important”. Thanks to our reader club to give a chance for us reading this book and also I will advice this book all my friends.
