I don’t remember now when I read it the first time, only that it made a big impact on me then and thus I was ready to read it again! As I get older there is a desire to go back to childlike simplicity, thinking, imagination, joys, and adventures. Reading this short little book is a great starting point and now I can enjoy the stars much more tonight thanks to Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the French writer and pilot who died in a WWII plane crash in 1944 just like my Uncle Earl. “The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, they are felt with the heart.”
“All grown-ups were once children… but only few of them remember it.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
