Fábula mítica y relato filosófico que interroga acerca de la relación del ser humano con su prójimo y con el mundo, El Principito concentra, con maravillosa simplicidad, la constante reflexión de Saint-Exupéry sobre la amistad, el amor, la responsabilidad y el sentido de la vida. Viví así, solo, sin nadie con quien hablar verdaderamente, hasta que tuve una avería en el desierto del Sahara, hace seis años. Algo se había roto en mi motor. Y como no tenía conmigo ni mecánico ni pasajeros, me dispuse a realizar, solo, una reparación difícil. Era, para mí, cuestión de vida o muerte. Tenía agua apenas para ocho días. La primera noche dormí sobre la arena a mil millas de toda tierra habitada. Estaba más aislado que un náufrago sobre una balsa en medio del océano. Imaginen, pues, mi sorpresa cuando, al romper el día, me despertó una extraña vocecita que decía: -Por favor..., ¡dibújame un cordero!

EL PRINCIPITO A. De Saint - Exupéry A Leon Werth: Pido perdón a los niños por haber dedicado este libro a una persona mayor. Tengo una seria excusa: esta persona mayor es el mejor amigo que tengo en el mundo. Tengo otra excusa: esta persona mayor es capaz de entenderlo todo, hasta los libros para niños. Tengo una tercera excusa: esta persona mayor vive en Francia, donde pasa hambre y frío. Verdaderamente necesita consuelo. Si todas esas excusas no bastasen, bien puedo dedicar este libro al niño que una vez fue esta persona mayor. Todos los mayores han sido primero niños. (Pero pocos lo recuerdan). Corrijo, pues, mi dedicatoria: A LEON WERTH CUANDO ERA NIÑO I Cuando yo tenía seis años vi en un libro sobre la selva virgen que se titulaba "Historias vividas", una magnífica lámina. Representaba una serpiente boa que se tragaba a una fiera. En el libro se afirmaba: "La serpiente boa se traga su presa entera, sin masticarla. Luego ya no puede moverse y duerme durante los seis meses que dura su digestión".

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "A mythical fable and philosophical story that calls into question the relationship of a human being with his neighbor and with the world, The Little Prince distills, with wonderful simplicity, Saint-Exupéry''s constant reflection on friendship, love, responsibility, and meaning of the life. I lived like this, alone, with no one to truly talk to, until I had a breakdown in the Sahara Desert six years ago. Something had broken in my engine. And since I had neither a mechanic nor passengers with me, I set out to make the difficult repair alone. It was, for me, a matter of life and death. I had water for only eight days. The first night I slept on the sand a thousand miles from any inhabited land. I was more isolated than a castaway on a raft in the middle of the ocean. Imagine, then, my surprise when, at daybreak, a strange little voice woke me up that said: -Please... draw me a lamb! -Huh!? -Draw me a lamb... "
