Merkaba reviewed Little Prince by Antoine De Saint-Exupéry
Review of 'Little Prince' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
There’s not much more I can add to the millions of glowing reviews out there about The Little Prince. It’s one of the all time great books.

This is most assuredly a book everyone should read.
