He came from a very small planet. He had a rose he loved dearly, a fox who taught him the meaning of taming, and a sheep he never quite got the drawing right for. And in the space of a very short book, he managed to say everything that matters.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's The Little Prince has been quietly breaking hearts since 1943. It is, technically, a children's book. It is also one of the most widely read and translated works of literature in human history, which suggests that adults have always known it was really for them all along. A meditation on loneliness, love, loss and the particular sadness of growing up — wrapped in watercolour illustrations so gentle they almost hurt to look at. The fox was right. It is only with the heart that one can see rightly.
Our Little Prince collection brings together officially licensed gifts, homeware, accessories and collector's pieces inspired by Saint-Exupéry's beloved world — from mugs, prints and jewellery to figurines and keepsakes that carry that unmistakable sense of wistful wonder. For devoted fans, for first-time readers, and for anyone who remembers exactly how it felt to discover this book for the first time.
A perfect gift for the grown-ups who haven't forgotten how to see.
What is essential is invisible to the eye.
