In the early 1940s a retired French fighter pilot named Antoine de Saint-Exupéry sat in a hospital bed unsure of how to effectively spend his recovery time. A fortuitous retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's "The Little Mermaid" and a thoughtful gift of watercolor paints gave him all the inspiration he needed to ink a symbolic retelling of his life in epic form. This story would be published just a couple years later and leave an indelible impact on many reader's lives. The Little Prince is an unexpected epic centered around a young alien prince whose journeys and challenges reinforce everything that Saint-Exupéry believed France stood for. All things that could be in real jeopardy due to the oncoming world war. The simplicity of the narrative, combined with the depths of the subtext have made this read both timeless and a favorite among many avid bibliophiles. After you've given the Le Petit Prince Wallpaper a download, we'd encourage you to go pick up a copy. If you've never read it, I promise you'll love the story. If you read it some time in your "angsty" teenage years, I think you'll be amazed at how well it's aged.
