I have read some books this term. The one which impressed me most is <The Little Prince>. I brought this book last term.The book consists of three versions: French, Chinese and English. I read Chinese version first, which made my second read in English much easier. I’m not going to talk about the fairy tale’s writing skills, writing style and what philosophy it contains. Instead, I will pick out several sentences which moved me a lot and then show my feeling.

In part 4, there is “Not everyone has had a friend.” And later, in part 17, there’s “It’s also lonely with people.” The two sentences nearly have the same meaning. A true friend is of a lifetime. You may say that: “I have a lot of friends, and we always play together and chat together……” But in fact, friends are not those whom you always stay with. Friends can be away from your daily life, can be out of connection for a long time, but they understand what you do and what you say all the time. You never feel embarrassed when you stay with your friends and even say no words.

In part 8, the little prince: “He had taken seriously certain inconsequential remarks and had grown very unhappy.” It’s the same to us. We are too concerned about what others say to do what we really want to. Nowadays, we seems to care more about other people than ourselves. When you have bought a dress you thought was beautiful, someone says that: “ Oh, it is not suitable for you.” Guess what, you will

not wear the dress any more even if it is new.

In part 18, the flower had seen a caravan passing: “The wind blows them away. They have no roots, which hampers them a good deal.” The sentence seems ridiculous, however, makes me think a lot. For human being, roots mean spirit belief. There’s someone saying that: “One nation won’t be destroyed as long as it has belief.” Here, I want to mention Jewry. No matter how much hardship it went through, it never give up its struggling. I have seen a photo: an old Jewish woman holds a book and reads it seriously even though she is in the ruin after one battle. I admire this nation, and at the same time, I worry about our nation. Maybe it has belief which I don’t notice. It couldn’t be denied that we are becoming more and more fickle and materialistic. We are losing our spiritual belief gradually. Read more and search for one spiritual holy land.

In part 21, the fox tells the little prince : “It’s the time you spent on your rose that makes you rose so important.” I love this sentence most. I think of people’s dream. Perhaps in others’ eyes, our dreams are insignificant. They always discourage us. But what we should know is that only if you devote to your dream, your dream id unique. You yourself is the master of your dream.

At last, I want to take the author’s word as the ending: All grown-ups were children first (But few of them remember it). If only

we all remember it.

 

第二篇：《小王子》英文读后感

The book review of The Little Prince

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery contains a fairy tale which concludes plentiful things.The first thing we can learn from the book is the innocence of childhood and love.Although disappointed by what his roses said,the little prince still loved them.In the weiter’s opinion ,the roses stand for the pure love.

As the prince growed up,he made a decision to explore other planets and leave his hometown,a planet which just one person lived in.When travelling in the other planets,he discovered that his rose is not the only one of its kind.There are abandunt kinds of roses in the garden,but he still held the opinoion that his rose is special "because it is she that I have watered; because it is she that I have put under the glass globe; because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen" .

When he came to the earth ,another significant character ,the fox , teached the little prince to take his own responsibility bravely . What’s more ,the fox is also the little prince’s best friend and help with his understanding of the meaning of friendship.

All the story is told by a piolet ,who is another hero in the tale and met the little prince in the Sahara .At the end of the story ,the little prince died on the Earth with the piolet.

The writer made the story from the child’s view.Actually,what the 1

prince said is what the writer wanted to said.The theme of the story is to criticize the human beings’ drawbacks.As a alien, the little prince could see the human beings’ disadvantages clearly. In my opinion ,The Little Prince is more than a funny book written for the children.It is a kind of profound reflection of humans.Everyone finishing reading the book can form his thought in his mind. Therefore,I’m sure it is worthwhile to spend some time reading the book calmly.
