Summary

"Le premier soir, je me suis donc endormi sur le sable à mille milles de toute terre habitée. J'étais bien plus isolé qu'un naufragé sur un radeau au milieu de l'océan. Alors, vous imaginez ma surprise, au lever du jour, quand une drôle de petite voix m'a réveillé. Elle disait : "S'il vous plaît... dessine-moi un mouton !" J'ai bien regardé. Et j'ai vu ce petit bonhomme tout à fait extraordinaire qui me considérait gravement..."

Editor reviews

Le Petit Prince un grand classique français écrit par Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, qui en émerveille plus d’un. L’histoire est intemporelle, ce jeune garçon qui habite sur un astéroïde va décider de prendre son envol et partir à l’aventure sur d’autres planètes. Pendant son voyage il va rencontrer des personnages incroyables notamment un aviateur… le narrateur. Ce conte peut être vu comme philosophique c’est pour ceci que les petits comme les grands l’apprécient. Racontée par Bernard Giraudeau, l’histoire prend vie et nous fait voyager en même temps que le petit prince. Pour vous aider à vous envoler un peu plus loin, entre chaque chapitre de douces musiques d'ambiance accompagnent votre voyage.

Delightful, deep and meaningful.

The music was a bit of a trial but the book and the narrator made up for it.

grasp this beautiful story

the fact that I could set the tempo slightly slower and the clear reading made this classic understandable

Attention! Abrégé!

Ces connards chez Gallimard ont oublié la dédicace. Je Vous y ajoute:

A Léon Werth.
Je demande pardon aux enfants d'avoir dédié ce livre à une grande personne. J'ai une excuse sérieuse : cette grande personne est le meilleur ami que j'ai au monde. J'ai une autre excuse : cette grande personne peut tout comprendre, même les livres pour enfants. J'ai une troisième excuse : cette grande personne habite la France où elle a faim et froid. Elle a besoin d'être consolée. Si toutes ces excuses ne suffisent pas, je veux bien dédier ce livre à l'enfant qu'a été autrefois cette grande personne. Toutes les grandes personnes ont d'abord été des enfants. (Mais peu d'entre elles s'en souviennent.) Je corrige donc ma dédicace :
A Léon Werth quand il était petit garçon

L'enregistrement et la narration sont d'ailleurs parfaits.

A beautiful story

They have done a pretty good job on this audio book. I loved the way the voice actor read the story. I highly recommend this version.

Beautiful and thought provoking

I challenge anyone that reads or listens to Le Petit Prince to remain unchanged! The story challenges our unchecked assumptions , restores innocence and hope and reminds you that you alone set the rules to how you choose to see the world no matter what that world looks like.

Disappointing

Is there anything you would change about this book?

A classic story which I love. However, the recording has not been divided into tracks, so it is not possible to find your way around 1 hour 50 minutes of audio. I bought this book to improve my French comprehension and was hoping to play sections several times. Tthe playing of music over the dialogue makes it difficult to hear the french.

Any additional comments?

It was not cheap and I may try to obtain a refund for it if I do not manage to get on wtih it.

Ruined by the music

The amount of musical interludes ruins the flow of the story. I can accept a (very) short one at the start of each chapter but they are so long and frequent that you’re left drumming your fingers waiting for them to end.
