簡介Introduction:
Written and illustrated by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince is a poetic and philosophical tale disguised as a children’s book. The story follows a pilot stranded in the Sahara Desert who encounters a young prince from a tiny asteroid called B-612.
Through the prince’s travels across various planets, the book explores profound themes of love, loneliness, and the loss of childhood innocence. It famously critiques the "grown-up" world for prioritizing numbers and facts over beauty and imagination. With its iconic watercolor illustrations, the book teaches us that "what is essential is invisible to the eye." It remains a beloved masterpiece for readers of all ages.

簡介Introduction:
Young Nya takes little sister Akeer along on the two-hour walk to fetch water for the family. But Akeer becomes too ill to walk, and Nya faces the impossible: her sister and the full water vessel together are too heavy to carry. As she struggles, she discovers that if she manages to take one step, then another, she can reach home and Mama’s care. Bold, impressionistic paintings by Caldecott and Coretta Scott King Honor winner Brian Pinkney evoke the dry, barren landscape and the tenderness between the two sisters. An afterword discusses the process of providing clean water in South Sudan to reduce waterborne illness.
