The narrator of the novel is a pilot. He tells the readers at the beginning of the story that he cannot find a speculative person in the adult world because adults are too practical.
Then, the pilot told the story of how he made an emergency landing in the Sahara Desert six years ago due to a plane malfunction and met the little prince. The mysterious little prince comes from another planet. The pilot tells the story of the little prince and his rose. Why did the little prince leave his own planet? What planets did he visit before arriving on earth? He recounts the adventures of the little prince on six planets, where he meets a king, a vain man, a drunkard, a businessman, a lamplighter, a geographer, a snake, a three-petal desert flower, a rose garden, a switchman, a merchant, a fox and our narrator, the pilot himself.
The pilot and the little prince shared a very precious friendship in the desert. When the little prince left the earth, the pilot was very sad. He had always missed the time they spent together. He wrote this novel in memory of the little prince.
