"The Little Prince" is just a children's book. Why is it known as "the best book in the history of mankind"?

The children's book "The Little Prince" is a childhood classic read by 400 million people. It is not just a fairy tale. While watching the game, I picked up the pillow book "The Little Prince" and read it for a long time. After reading it, it was not enough, so I read its prequels "Sand Stars" and "Night Flight".

I have to say, I have a whole new feeling. I have always thought that "The Little Prince" is an extremely simple fairy tale: the little prince is the only resident of the little planet B612, and he is accompanied by a delicate rose.

One day, the little prince had an argument with the rose, so he bid farewell to the asteroid and started traveling in space. He visited six planets and met kings who worshiped power, gentlemen who loved vanity, drunkards who escaped from life, businessmen who were only interested in profit, lamplighters who worked in vain day and night, and geographers who adhered to dogma... Finally, he came to the earth and met A fox. The little prince tamed the fox and became a good friend with it.

Later, he met a pilot who accidentally crashed his plane in the desert, accompanied the pilot over the edge of life and death, and finally found a well. The pilot was rescued and the little prince disappeared deep into the desert.

But after reading "The Little Prince Trilogy" again, I had a completely new experience of this fairy tale. Coincidentally, the editor of "The Little Prince Trilogy" Qiulunmelu also had the same feeling recently. After reading "The Little Prince Trilogy", what is it like to read "The Little Prince" again.

The Little Prince introduced the world to a great writer, Saint-Exupéry, but it also made the world ignore his true mission in life: to be a pilot.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944) French writer Saint-Exupéry, one of the earliest generation of pilots in France, was one of the first pilots in human history .

He has longed for adventure since he was a child, and flew into the sky for the first time with a pilot at the age of 12. At the age of 21, Saint-Exupéry, who had longed for the sky since childhood, finally had a chance to realize his dream. He was drafted for military service, and due to service restrictions, he could only serve as a ground maintenance personnel in the army. He had to take various measures to take flying lessons diligently.

Finally, on June 18, 1921, he walked into the cockpit he had longed for. On December 31 of the same year, Saint-Exupéry passed the examination and officially obtained the qualification as an air force pilot. At the age of 26, Saint-Exupéry joined the French airline Latte Coel and was responsible for flying postal aircraft.

Since then, he has become one of the first pilots in human history. At the age of 30, Saint-Exupéry was stationed in Argentina and responsible for opening up routes to South America. There, he and his companions fought against storms and brushed against death many times, and finally achieved the first human feat of flying at night. His Night Flight describes this experience.
