Let’s learn more about The little prince.
Antoine de Saint_x0002_Exupéry (1900–1944) was a French writer and pilot. As a young boy, he was obsessed with aeroplanes, riding in one for the first time at the age of 12. He spent much of his life flying and writing about his adventures. Saint-Exupéry’s most successful work, The Little Prince, is one of the best selling books ever published.
Read the introduction to Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and answer the questions.
The story was probably inspired by his plane crash in the desert in 1935. Saint-Exupéry nearly died, and wandered around for four days before being rescued. In 1944, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry left on a wartime mission over occupied France, from which he never returned. Although the remains of his plane were discovered in 2000, Saint Exupéry’s body has never been found, and the cause of his death remains unknown.
