An enjoyable short book about a handful of famous sites around the world. The descriptions and information seem best for 4-6 year olds. I do wish the book was longer, but kids and adults will enjoy this one and the wonderful illustrations.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

In this Little Prince book, Little Prince’s friend, the Rose has a cold. To cheer up his friend, Little Prince decides to fly around the world in his airplane and take pictures of famous places.

The reading age is listed as 5 – 6 and a grade level of kindergarten and up. Although I can imagine a 5-6 -year-old understanding the large words on each page and comprehending the pictures. I do not think that they would have any way of understanding the complex words or mathematical measurements used to describe the geographical places or famous structures.

However, I do think that a kindergartener would appreciate the beautiful illustrations in this book and the story about the prince’s voyage to cheer up his sick friend.

On the flip side, I do think that this book could be used in various educational modules within the classroom (history or math) for older elementary children. These children would also appreciate the social implications of The Prince doing something nice to cheer up his friend.

I want to thank Author Corinne Delporte, Illustrator Antoine de Saint-Exupery, Choutte Publishing, and NetGalley for the opportunity to review this Advanced Reader’s Copy. This is a voluntary review, and all comments and opinions are entirely my own.

This is a great little book to expose older elementary age children to facts about world geography and landmarks. My 7-year-old asked questions about the different famous landmarks, and enjoyed looking at the map at the end. He learned that Egypt is in Africa, and I also explained to him the difference between countries and continents. He enjoys facts and nonfiction books. He also asked questions about the Colosseum, and several other famous landmarks.

Thank you to Chouette Publishing and NetGalley for this digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The Little Prince Around the World is a sweet children’s book which explores famous monuments around the world, and provides a ton of facts about them. It’d be a great book to grow up with as you could begin with engaging with the images and exploring the world map, and then as you grow older, you can fully enjoy the facts.

That said, the motif of the sick rose, seems to be dropped fairly quickly and we only return to it during the final pages. Personally, the book would have been just as enjoyable without this and would’ve given more space to characterising The Little Prince.

Nice little trip around the world. Not sure what age this is geared for but it's probably better for ages 6-8 because it's pretty wordy. However you can just read the simplified parts for the younger kids.

This charming book serves as an introduction to The Little Prince for younger children while also taking them around the world and introducing them to a number of famous landmarks. It is an architecture lesson, history lesson, and geography lesson all rolled into one.

I can see this being a hit with the preschool age group but also an asset in elementary classrooms. I would buy it for my architecture-loving younger child.

The following countries are visited in the book: France, England, Italy, Spain, Egypt, United States, Brazil, China, Japan, Australia.

This book is great! It is written and published in Canada, and is about the little prince visiting a bunch of famous landmarks in a trip around the world. Each page has a nice drawing of the landmark, a few clouds with facts and a few sentences describing the landmark. There are mini maps on each page and a larger map with all of the destinations at the end. I could definitely see this book in my Grade 3 classroom library as an opportunity to introduce our unit on famous structures around the world in Science and Social Studies. I would recommend this book to parents and teachers of children in the 4-9 age range. It is simple enough that young children could follow along and look at the pictures, with just enough information to be helpful for students in the early elementary grades wanting to learn more about structures.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this book!

I truly enjoyed The Little Prince, so when I saw this, I was excited to read it with the kids. I thought it would be a good way to introduce them to other cultures and places, but this is a story that did not work for the preschoolers like I thought it would.

While the illustrations are nice, it's not entirely engaging for the younger audience. I had a good time reading it and thought it was interesting. I think older kids might as well as it really boils down some big landmarks in places.

Unfortunately was disappointed by this one as found the cover misleading as to the age it’s aimed at. My little ones love learning about other countries and from the illustration on the cover of the book thought it would be aimed at preschoolers but the content, although interesting for me, was not very engaging for them (not sure they would understand or care that the Great Wall of China was built in the 13th Century!)

This is the perfect book to use during Around the world lesson plan week. It contains multiple places to research and make projects with. It also provides information about the famous sites and monuments in each destination.

I also enjoyed that the little prince went through the trouble of traveling everywhere just to cheer up his friend.

Thank you, Chouette Publishing,for the advance reading copy.

I need this book so much! A much needed sequel/side story to the Little Prince!

I am amazed with how much ease and beautifully this small book describes some important monuments and such from places around the world.

The information is concise yet easy to read to and be read for the target audience.

Adorable and important.

Just like the title, it is a story about the little prince who travels around the world to see magnificent monuments in each country. This book is full of illustration with description about the monument and some interesting facts every here and there. Quite fun journey.

This was unfortunately a bit of a disappointing read. The concept is cute and generally each section is informative, except for a few errors:
- The Eiffel Tower has recently added a radio antenna and this has increased its height to 330m (obviously a very new thing so it is understandable it was not included).
- In the Egypt section, it seemed like the singular "sarcophagus" was used, when the plural was needed - either sarcophagi or sarcophaguses.
- When the Little Prince headed to the USA, he went to "America" instead. This is just factually incorrect.

My other main issue was that for a book claiming to be about going around the world, it seemed a very patchy and odd selection of where to go. Paris, London, Italy, Spain, Egypt, America (USA), Rio de Janeiro, China, Japan, Australia. The mix of cities and heavy emphasis on Europe, created a very strange global focus. It would have been better if only countries were focused on, and perhaps more from each continent. Or have a series where the Little Prince visits each continent, thus allowing for fitting more cities and countries in. As it stands, the book leaves me wanting more and feeling not quite up to the promise of visiting the whole world. I am interested in the concept though - I just think it needs some work.

Thank you to Net Galley for providing me with a free eBook to review.

This "spin-off" book uses the Little Prince merely as a framing device, and has nothing to do with Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's timeless classic. If you are looking for the scintillating wit, philosophy and poignant humour of the original story, you will not find it here. This book could just as easily have been called "Sherlock Holmes Around the World" or "Paddington Bear Around the World" and it would have made no difference. The focus is completely on a series of notable landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Pyramids, Sydney Opera House, etc. The short descriptions and accompanying illustrations are a nice way to introduce young children to the history of these famous landmarks and important facts about them. But older children will probably want a book with real photographs and more precise maps.

The Little Prince Around the World takes the reader on an adventure with the Little Prince as he travels around the world! I loved all the different facts of major landmarks in various countries. I really loved the map at the end to tie all the travels together. This is a fun, bright book, for a wide range of ages.
