The Little Prince by Antoine De Saint-Exupery

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry is a philosophical fable about a stranded pilot who meets a young prince from a tiny asteroid. The prince recounts his journey, including caring for his beloved rose, his travels to other planets meeting narrow-minded adults, and his meeting with a fox on Earth. He learns that love and responsibility—"taming" others—make life meaningful, concluding that "what is essential is invisible to the eye"
