It's a pretty interesting question, and the answers were too. I guess each reader reads a different book.
This is what I gleaned from The little prince: As we grow up, our opinions and intentions are inevitably colored by the norms of the society. In an adults parochial view, you often tend to miss the little important things that matter the most. This book, to me, is a soft pull towards freedom of thought that is not dictated by my environment. (less)
