The owner of the long shadow

Book name: The Little Prince Author: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Publisher: Dar Al Rafdain Number of pages: 233 Summary: There is an exceptional charm in stories where orphans take the lead because it is true heroism when they go out into the world and face it with an open chest without a social system to support and protect them. It seems logical if we remember more childhood stories that left their marks on our hearts: Heidi, Tarzan, Sarah, Sally, Oliver Twist, Tom Sawyer, and even Harry Potter. These are the heroes through whom we learn to love life and truly belong to the world, as Judy Abbott expressed. This novel was written in 1912 and since then has been a source of inspiration for readers, writers, and artists alike. It has been repeatedly adapted into theatrical and musical performances, films, series, and even cartoons. This novel tells the adventure of Judy Abbott, who left the orphanage because one guardian decided to take responsibility for her education after noticing her exceptional talent in writing, especially gentle writing, and her insistence on happiness as a choice in life, not a birthright.
