It’s hard to choose just one, since I feel like every book has left a mark on me as a reader. If I had to pick, though, I would say The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. It’s a book I re-read every few years, and each time I draw a different meaning from it. Most times, though, it reminds me to nurture my…

Winnie-the-Pooh by A.A. Milne, The Story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf, and The Little Prince by Antoine de Sainte-Exupery. Even though these are classified as children’s books, they are a great introduction to many facets of humanity: kindness from the first, gentleness from the second, and resilience from the third.

At a very young age it would have been The Monster At The End Of This Book starring Grover by Jon Stone, and The Berenstain Bears and the Spooky Old Tree by Stan and Jan Berenstain.

I would suggest The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, it was the first book I read in the English language and it was helpful to learn a new language through a story.

In elementary school, we had twenty minutes set aside everyday for quiet reading time, and I was in French Immersion, so we had to read in French.

I believe Les Misérables by Victor Hugo and The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck both opened up my social conscience and my eyes to the man I wanted to become someday. The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery opened up my imagination and filled it with dreams. Then I would say the 3,000 or so books that followed…

Because I am a mother, and my daughter is 6 years old, I mostly read books for children. In the last week we have read The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery. I am currently studying for my Ph.D in the faculty of art, so as a result I must read a lot of texts about art, artists and the philosophy of art; for…

This book, by the author of The Little Prince, is an autobiographical account of Antoine’s adventures during WWII – as a pilot, reflecting on the meaning and significance of life from a humanistic philosophy and how perceptions of life are shifted when you are tested to…
