The Little Prince A. de Saint-Exupery

In terms of reading for me, people are divided into two groups: those who like the "Little Prince" by A. de Saint-Exupery, and those who do not like him and who do not understand this work. I consider myself to be the first group of people, and I like this work so much that I write about it first of all.
I think that this is just a magical work that has some kind of magnetic appeal and gives an impetus to kind and good feelings and thoughts.
An adult gets to another planet, where he meets a little boy who teaches him to see his ordinary things from the inside, in the most unusual way, and also to take care of what surrounds a person, as well as about the people around him, because "we must be responsible for those who have been tamed."
Everyone can understand this work in their own way, because it is filled with symbolism, but, for me, this is a work about eternal values that are relevant at all times:
1. We live on a planet that we have to take care of: to observe cleanliness and order, starting with the smallest - our desktop, apartment, our thoughts, finally.
2. We must also take care of each other and realize our abilities in the most useful way for ourselves and for society. A teacher who loves his job is priceless in his place, a janitor who brings cleanliness and order next to us is also priceless.
3. And every day is valuable and unique, because on this day we can learn something, learn something new and interesting, as well as benefit society and take care of our neighbor. And a new day may not come. That's all, actually. And it turns out that in this children's work, the basic meaning of life is explained in very simple language. Is this not the pinnacle of the author's skill.
Maybe you see something different in the essence of this work? Write…
