    My favorite book in the roundup is, well, The Little Prince! I loved reading it as a child and love how its wisdom is applicable to people of all ages. :)

    This is one of my favorite books! I didnt discover it as a child but was introduced to it in college by another bookie friend. I cannot wait to read this to our 2 small children. I hope they enjoy it as well for many years to come.

    I love that Little Prince pop-up book and will probably be buying a copy for a friend who wants a shiny new copy of the book for Christmas. Even better, I don’t think she even knows it exists (I hope she doesn’t read this blog! ;) ), which will make it all the better!

    I loved the review of The Little Prince. I know the perfect little girl for this book. I am positive that she would love to have this book for her collection. She is dyslexic and we try to encourage reading as much as possible. The pop-ups would definitely be a plus.

    Both of my children grew up reading this wonderful book & now that it is a pop-up is just icing on the cake! Love it!

    The Little Prince is a delight. My mom is a French teacher, and I had the pleasure of reading it in both French and English.

    The little prince is unique and special. I read this delightful book to my son who never tired of this classic.

    What a wonderful idea and gift. I love this book. I chose The Bibliophile’s Devotional: 365 Days of Literary Classics. I have two friends that are definitely getting this from me, and I am going to treat myself as well.

    I loved The Little Prince, as a child. I now have a grandchild I would love to share this special edition with.
