Editorial Reviews

Review

A pair of boxed sets allows youngest readers to tote favorite characters. Introducing the Little Prince: Board Book Gift Set contains a quartet of handsize board books cleverly adapted from Antoine de Saint-Exupery's novel and highlighting his artwork. I Am the Little Prince/Je Suis le Petit Prince unfolds with one line of English and its French translation per page, laying the groundwork for the novel from which they were sprung ("I live on a small planet"; "Look at my beautiful flower!" etc.). The other three unspool in English only: in A Day with the Little Prince, the boy cares for his planet ("He sweeps out the volcanoes"); tabbed pages highlight the fox he tames, the flower he tends and more in Friends of the Little Prince; and Counting with the Little Prince goes from "One Little Prince" up through "Five planets." (Publishers Weekly )

Product Description

The Little Prince lives alone on a small, strange planet, where he tends volcanoes, cares for a special rose, and watches sunsets.
Meet this beloved character and learn about his adventures in four winsome board books--I Am the Little Prince/Je Suis Le Petit Prince, A Day with the Little Prince, Friends of the Little Prince, and Counting with the Little Prince--inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's enduring tale of friendship.

2.0 out of 5 stars A Poor "Introduction.", March 2, 2005

By	KP "KP" (Miami, FL United States) - See all my reviews

Don't waste your money on this one. I am a big fan of "The Little Prince," and this fails to satisfy my expectations. I have a small child and I wanted her to be able to hear a simple version of this book. The story is way to simple and the pictures don't "grab" a young audience (an audience that would require board books in the first place). The compilation of books is haphazard in nature. I don't know who will be the audience for this book. Fans of The Little Prince will find this selection disappointing and new audiences will wonder what the fuss is over the story, and that would be a real shame. There is no message in this selection of simple books. The box is beautiful and the books appear to be well made. It will make a pretty "literary" accessory on my child's bookshelf...but sadly...that is about it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Sparse Expensive Little Books, April 29, 2009

By	Pamela Hoyem (Pasadena, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Love the story of "The Little Prince" and love board books - our son is 1 year old, after all. But really! -Do these books have to be so thin? The only book in the set that is almost worth having is the "I am the Little Prince" with the French/English translations. These little books are not engaging in any way and though they attempt to be with the tabs in "Friends of the Little Prince" and the flap that covers the stars in "Counting with the Little Prince", they are not worth the price. They are almost decorative or probably more of a collection piece than they are for children to be introduced to this sweet story.

4.0 out of 5 stars my son loves these!, February 26, 2009

By	Nicole A. Shavell - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great set for toddlers and above. My son loves to read all the books before bed as they are the perfect length for his attention span. The only thing I wish is that all 4 books were in French and English instead of just the one.
