In this sympathetic yet penetrating study of a revered classic of children's literature, James E. Higgins examines the relevance of Saint-Exupery's active engagement in World War II, demonstrating that this most unusual man - who took part in adventures that few people will experience in their lifetimescould at the same time be everyman, communicating universal truths. By examining The Little Prince's simple style and imaginative motifs, Higgins reveals how this little fairy tale so powerfully teaches its lessons about pain, faith, and love and so compellingly asks us to turn inward to find answers to questions of responsibility - to "see with our hearts."
