The Little Prince: Pop Up Book - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

"The Little Prince: Pop-Up Book" is a beautifully reimagined edition of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s timeless masterpiece, “Le Petit Prince.” In this interactive pop-up version, readers are invited to rediscover the poetic and philosophical story through stunning three-dimensional paper art that brings each scene vividly to life.

The story follows a young prince who leaves his tiny asteroid and travels across the universe, visiting different planets and meeting a series of curious adults - each representing a human flaw such as vanity, greed, or obsession with power. When he arrives on Earth, the Little Prince meets a stranded aviator in the desert, and their friendship becomes the emotional core of the story.

Through their conversations and the prince’s reflections on love, loss, and the nature of human relationships - especially his love for his rose — the story reminds readers of the purity, imagination, and emotional honesty of childhood that adults often lose.

The pop-up illustrations enhance the reading experience by transforming iconic scenes - such as the prince’s encounters with the fox and the snake, or his view of the stars - into breathtaking 3D artworks. Gérard Lo Monaco’s intricate design captures both the simplicity and depth of Saint-Exupéry’s world, making this edition a true collector’s piece.
