IV. PLOT
1. INTRODUCTION:
The narrator introduces himself as a man who learned when he was a child that adults
lack imagination and understanding. He is now a pilot who has crash-landed in a
desert. He encounters a small boy who asks him for a drawing of a sheep, and the
narrator obliges. The narrator, who calls the child the little prince, learns that the boy
comes from a very small planet, which the narrator believes to be asteroid B-612.
Over the course of the next few days, the little prince tells the narrator about his life.
On his asteroid-planet, which is no bigger than a house, the prince spends his time
pulling up baobab seedlings, lest they grow big enough to engulf the tiny planet. One
day an anthropomorphic rose grows on the planet, and the prince loves her with all
his heart. However, her vanity and demands become too much for the prince, and he
leaves.
2. RAISING ACTION:
The prince travels to a series of asteroids, each featuring a grown-up who has been
reduced to a function. The first is a king who requires obedience but has no subjects
until the arrival of the prince. The sole inhabitant of the next planet is a conceited
man who wants nothing from the prince but flattery. The prince subsequently meets a
drunkard, who explains that he must drink to forget how ashamed he is of drinking.
The fourth planet introduces the prince to a businessman, who maintains that he owns
the stars, which makes it very important that he know exactly how many stars there
are. The prince then encounters a lamplighter, who follows orders that require him to
light a lamp each evening and put it out each morning, even though his planet spins
so fast that dusk and dawn both occur once every minute. Finally, the prince comes to
a planet inhabited by a geographer. The geographer, however, knows nothing of his
own planet, because it is his sole function to record what he learns from explorers. He
asks the prince to describe his home planet, but when the prince mentions the flower,
the geographer says that flowers are not recorded because they are ephemeral. The
geographer recommends that the little prince visit Earth.
3. CLIMAX:
On Earth the prince meets a snake, who says that he can return him to his home, and
a flower, who tells him that people lack roots. He comes across a rose garden, and he
finds it very depressing to learn that his beloved rose is not, as she claimed, unique in
the universe. A fox then tells him that if he tames the fox—that is, establishes ties
with the fox—then they will be unique and a source of joy to each other.
4. FALLING ACTION:
The narrator and the little prince have now spent eight days in the desert and have run
of water. The two then traverse the desert in the search of a well, which,
miraculously, they find. The little prince tells the narrator that he plans to return that
night to his planet and flower and that now the stars will be meaningful to the
narrator, because he will know that his friend is living on one of them. Returning to
his planet requires allowing the poisonous snake to bite him.
5. ENDING:
Six years later, the narrator says that the prince body went missing in the morning, so he
knows that he returned to his planet, and he wonders whether the sheep that drew him ate
his flower. The narrator implores the readers to contact him if they spot the little prince as
an ending.
V. Theme:
On how one should be aware with the peril of narrow-mindedness, the insights one can
learn from exploration and adventure, and how one would acquire responsibility from
relationship.
