I don't think I've read an actual children's book in ages and only decided to pick this up for one of my reading challenge prompts.

I know this is a book for kids and it's translated from French, so some things may have been missed out - but it felt more like a book for adults with very profound messaging. It's about keeping the child in us alive, appreciating the little things we have in our life and having some optimism and hope that everything will be alright in the end. The illustrations were absolutely lovely and gave off this very gentle feeling. And the friendship between the main character and little prince was adorable, almost making me cry towards the end.

I guess most of you must have already read this book, but if you are like me and haven't experienced this before, then pick this up when you are in the mood for something sweet and short. It'll either make you smile or cry, but will definitely leave you feeling good.
