The pilot,Antoine de Saint-Exupéry,who wrote The Little Prince,died long ago, but the fictional pilot, who told the story, is as alive today as he was many years ago, along with the prince, the fox, the rose and the snake.
This timeless tale touches upon childhood and growing up. It opens with the reminder: All grown-ups were once children—but few of them remember it. The pilot in this story loses that part of himself. After a stay in the desert with the little prince, he finds his inner child again. It is a simple story with life lessons. Here are some.
One only understands the things that one tames(驯服). Seeing the thousands of roses that look just like his rose makes the prince feel as if he was tricked by his flower. The fox shows him taming someone takes time. The prince understands the nature of relationships: The time he has "wasted" on his rose makes her so important.
The fox, as his parting gift,shares his secret with the prince, "One can see rightly with the heart. What is essential(very important and necessary) is invisible(not be seen) to the eye." When the pilot shows his picture of the snake eating the elephant, adults only see it as a hat. Adults can't see what's inside the snake. What is on the surface is not what matters. This truth sets the little prince free. He decides to join his rose back on his planet.
Has he returned to his planet and his rose? The ending exists in the imagination of every reader as well as the pilot. After all,it is a book with something for everyone.

Homestays are becoming more and more popular,and people around the world are offering their homes as hotels. Homestays offer cheap places to stay,and the chance for guests to see the area like a local. They are very popular with people who want to stay in another country to study or go on holiday. We asked three families who run homestays to tell us about where they live.
The Atal family
Our family home is in a small village in the north of Pakistan,in the Himalayan mountains. The village is quite small and very quiet. The mountains are extremely beautiful. You can go for long walks and swim in the rivers but there are no shops,cinemas or cafes.
Kate and Julian Foxton
Our two-bed house is by the sea in the south-west of the UK. It is about five minutes' drive to the nearest village of Portreath. There are lots of beaches,rivers and forests and it is very quiet. We spend a lot of time reading books,watching films and going for walks. Our area is great for sports like surfing,kayaking and mountain biking. However,the houses here are expensive,which can be a problem for local people. There are no buses or trains here,so it can be difficult to get around without a car.
Chafic and Aline Halwany
Our home is near the centre of Beirut,Lebanon,one of the largest cities in the Middle East. There are lots of cafes and restaurants,which stay open late at night. We love living here because it's so friendly and you can always find what you need—lots of people come to stay to learn Arabic and French. However,it can be noisy at night,and there is quite a lot of traffic during the day.
