Bliss English Club

The main theme of The Little Prince is the importance of looking beneath the surface to find the real truth and meaning of a thing. The little prince also relates his journey to earth, stopping on the way at different asteroids on which grown-ups (a king, a businessman, and a conceited man), appear to him very strangely because of their resolved application to things that are only quantifiable and have no ultimate purpose. He speaks of the time he spent with the fox, learning the art of taming and rites, which turns what is common into a unique relationship. The fox teaches the Prince to see with one’s heart instead of just with one’s eyes. Unfortunately, most adults have difficulty doing this. The story points out how grown-ups can never see the real meaning of a drawing; instead, they look at the surface, failing to probe a deeper meaning.
