Perfection!

Only the remarkable Peter Sis could write about Antoine de Saint-Exupery with the same gentle touch as the pilot himself. The book's beauty is indescribable. Page after page, we accompany Antoine on his life's journey. When the page is turned, the blood of the Germans' assault on France is doused by the blue of the ocean and the glow of the moon. From the whimsy of Manhattan's alligator pose to the glistening rise of an image of THE LITTLE PRINCE on the following pages--I catch my breath with its beauty.Beyond that, it's a great true story of a pilot with a dream. Sis has taken us as close to the "glittering planet next to the stars" as we can go in this life. (Lift the book jacket to discover the embossed airplane. This sort of detail is rarely found in contemporary books.)

HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE CREATOR OF 'THE LITTLE PRINCE'?

I admit, I am obsessed by anything to do with biplanes, taming, THE LITTLE PRINCE, and its creator, Antoine St Exupery. He's the pilot of the title, one of those legendary souls who flies away, leaving the bonds of earth for a kind of immortality, literary, mythic, and otherwise..

Great Book!!

This is a biography of St-Exupery told with references to the Little Prince. I loved it because it tells of this author's life and career in a concise and easy-to-understand way. My students enjoyed it immensely as did I.

Not just for children

This is a beautifully illustrated story of a fascinating man--Antoine St. Exupery. For those of us who have loved THE LITTLE PRINCE or his other books, discovered at any age as the wonders they are, this is engrossing as well as attractive reading.

An intelligent book that arouses curiosity and engages the reader in a bit of geography and history. The book regards France and flying airplanes as they developed.

5 star illustrations, 3 star text

Beautifully illustrated, but the text is disjointed and confusingly laid out. I feel like I got hints of a very interesting life.

Gorgeous. Bought with The Little Prince and read back to back. Illustrations are enlightening in themselves, even more than the text. Totally enjoyable and whimsical art.
