He is from a planet called B612 which has three volcanoes and a rose along with a few other objects. The Little Prince has been traveling to many different asteroids and planets because he needs advice on how to care for his rose. The pilot then helps teach the Little Prince about love, friendship, responsibility, and beauty.

This is a great book to use with talking about the different perspectives or points of views. You can have the students think what a child's point of view at certain points in the story and how they would differ from an adult's point of view.
