Summary of "The Little Prince"

A pilot crashes his airplane in the Sahara desert and meets the little prince, a serious blond boy who comes from a small planet called Asteroid B-612.
The little prince took care of his planet and fell in love with a rose, but he grew lonely and decided to explore other planets.
The little prince encounters strange, narrow-minded grown-ups on neighboring asteroids, including a king, a vain man, a drunkard, a businessman, a lamplighter, and a geographer.
He learns that flowers do not last forever from the geographer and visits Earth, where he meets a snake and a fox who teaches him about love and responsibility.
The little prince finds a rose garden and realizes that his love for his rose makes her unique and that he is responsible for her.
The little prince and the pilot set off to find a well, and they share a moment of bliss as they agree that too many people do not see what is truly important in life.
The little prince plans to return to his planet with the snake's help, and the pilot fixes his plane on the day before the one-year anniversary of the prince's arrival on Earth.
The snake bites the prince and he falls noiselessly to the sand, but the narrator takes comfort in the stars and believes that the prince has returned to his asteroid.
The narrator wonders if the sheep he drew has eaten the prince's rose and asks readers to stop under the stars if they are ever in the area and to let him know if the little prince has returned.
