The Little Prince stands apart in the pilot writer's oeuvre. The little book, written shortly before Exupery's death, is not at all like other fairy tales. Exupery's fairy tale for children is wise and humane. And its author is not only a poet, but also a philosopher. Published as a children's book, this poetic fairy tale is about the courage and simple wisdom of a child's soul, such important "non-children's" concepts as life and death, love and responsibility, friendship and loyalty. The drawings for the book were made by the author himself and are no less glorious than the book itself. It is important that these are not just illustrations, but an organic part of the work as a whole: the author himself and the characters of the fairy tale constantly refer to the drawings and even argue about them.
