I bought myself a pop-up book of The Little Prince. I don’t have grandchildren or any child to read to, just my Inner Child who loves pop-up paper art and wanted to read The Little Prince again. I read it once in French class, in junior high school, and that was a struggle with no interesting pop-ups. For a minute it was hard to spend the money but after I ordered it, I was excited to get it! Someday I’ll find a real child to share reading the book with. Until then, I’m treating my Inner Child to the experience.
“To be nobody – but – yourself – in a world which is doing its best, night and day to make you everybody else – means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.” – e.e. cummings
