Editorial Reviews

"The design of each page is simple, with text set against a different patterned background. The surprises to be discovered by lifting each flap are tactile: the soft fleece of the sheep, the bumpiness of the glittery moon, and even the velvety softness of rose petals. Finally, the fox is uncovered—inside a box on which the Little Prince sits. Of course, the references from the original story won’t mean much to tiny toddlers, but adults who grew up with the classic may appreciate the illustrations and notice the subtle nods to the tale." – Kirkus Review

From the Publisher

2023-01-25
A touch-and-feel, lift-the-flap board book featuring characters from The Little Prince (1943).

Readers must hunt for the Little Prince’s fox friend behind every flap in this book translated from French. “Is the fox behind the CACTUS?” “No, that’s a sheep!” “Is the fox hiding behind the BIRDS?” “No, that’s The Little Prince sitting on the moon!” The design of each page is simple, with text set against a different patterned background. The surprises to be discovered by lifting each flap are tactile: the soft fleece of the sheep, the bumpiness of the glittery moon, and even the velvety softness of rose petals. Finally, the fox is uncovered—inside a box on which the Little Prince sits. Of course, the references from the original story won’t mean much to tiny toddlers, but adults who grew up with the classic may appreciate the illustrations and notice the subtle nods to the tale. For instance, the fox sought throughout this book is also the one who teaches the Little Prince an important bit of wisdom in the original. Though youngsters will enjoy handling the flaps and feeling the textures, there’s little here to set this one apart from other books with similar formats apart from the overarching theme, which will appeal more to grown-ups.

Familiar fare geared more toward adult fans of the source material than to little ones. (Board book. 0-2)
