The Little Prince Chapter 1
El Principito Capítulo 1
2
Pictures Once, when I was six years old,
Imágenes Una vez, cuando tenía seis años,
3
I read a book about a primeval forest.
Leí un libro sobre un bosque primigenio.
4
The book described how a snake,
El libro describía cómo una serpiente,
5
called a boa constrictor, ate its food whole without chewing.
llamada boa constrictor, comía su comida entera sin masticar.
6
I thought a lot about this, and one day I drew a picture of a snake with an elephant inside it.
Pensé mucho en esto, y un día dibujé una serpiente con un elefante dentro.
7
It is my picture number one.
Es mi foto número uno.
8
Here it is.
Aquí lo tienes.
9
I showed my picture to some grown -ups, and I asked them, Are you frightened by my picture?
Les mostré mi foto a algunos adultos y les pregunté: ¿Les asusta mi foto?
10
All of them said the same thing.
Todos dijeron lo mismo.
11
I'm not frightened by a picture of a hat.
No me asusta la foto de un sombrero.
12
But it was not a picture of a hat it was a picture of a snake with an elephant inside it.
Pero no era la foto de un sombrero, sino la foto de una serpiente con un elefante dentro.
13
Then I drew my picture number two, because grown -ups are not very intelligent.
Luego hice mi segundo dibujo, porque los adultos no son muy inteligentes.
14
Here it is.
Aquí lo tienes.
15
I showed picture number two to the grown -ups, but they were not interested in it.
Les mostré la foto número dos a los adultos, pero no les interesó.
16
I was sad.
Estaba triste.
17
So I stopped drawing pictures.
Así que dejé de dibujar.
18
I went to school and I learned about other things like math and geography.
Fui a la escuela y aprendí sobre otras cosas como matemáticas y geografía.
19
Then I became a grown -up and I met lots of other grown -ups.
Luego me hice adulto y conocí a muchos otros adultos.
20
Sometimes I showed my picture number one to other grown -ups, but they are not very intelligent.
A veces les enseño mi foto número uno a otros adultos, pero no son muy inteligentes.
21
They always said, It's a hat.
Siempre decían: Es un sombrero.
22
And I did not show them picture number two.
Y no les enseñé la foto número dos.
23
I grew older and I learned how to fly planes.
Me hice mayor y aprendí a pilotar aviones.
24
As a pilot, I flew planes all over the world.
Como piloto, volé aviones por todo el mundo.
25
Then, one day, as I was flying over the Sahara Desert, my plane crashed.
Un día, mientras sobrevolaba el desierto del Sahara, mi avión se estrelló.
26
I was not hurt, but I could not start the plane again.
No resulté herido, pero no pude volver a arrancar el avión.
27
I was alone in the desert, and I did not have much water.
28
I had to work on the plane quickly.
29
That night, I slept on the sand.
30
The next morning, I met the most extraordinary person,
31
and I showed him my picture number one.
32
Chapter 2.
33
A Sheep I woke up, and I heard a voice.
34
Draw me a sheep, please, the voice said.
35
What?
36
I said.
37
I opened my eyes and I jumped up.
38
Could you please draw me a sheep, said the voice.
39
A boy with golden hair was standing in front of me.
40
I was very surprised to see him because we were in the middle of a desert in Africa.
41
We were alone in a desert, but he did not look frightened.
42
This is my picture of the boy.
43
It is not very good.
44
I never learned to draw very well.
45
What are you doing here?
46
I said.
47
It was difficult to speak because I was surprised.
48
He laughed quietly.
49
But he did not answer me.
50
He said again, Please draw me a sheep.
51
I'm good at lots of things, I said.
52
But I'm not very good at drawing.
53
It doesn't matter, he said slowly.
54
You can draw me a sheep.
55
I can't draw a sheep, I said, but I can draw this.
56
I drew him my picture number one, the drawing of the snake with the whole elephant inside it.
57
No, no, I don't want a picture of an elephant inside a snake, he said.
58
At home everything is very small and elephants are too big.
59
I need a sheep.
60
Draw me a sheep.
61
Again I was very surprised, and I drew a sheep.
62
He looked at it.
63
Then he said, No, this sheep doesn't look very well.
64
Try again.
65
I drew a second sheep.
66
The boy looked at it and he smiled.
67
This isn't a sheep, he said.
68
This is a ram.
69
I can see the horns on its head.
70
Try again.
71
But he did not like that drawing because the sheep looked too old.
72
I want a young sheep, he said.
73
I want the sheep to live for a long time.
74
I did not want to draw another picture because I wanted to work on my plane.
75
Then I thought hard, and I drew this picture very quickly.
76
The sheep lives in this box, I said to him.
77
He looked closely at the picture.
78
Then I was surprised because he laughed.
79
This is very good, he said.
80
Will the sheep eat a lot of grass?
81
Why?
82
I asked.
83
Because at home everything is very small and there isn't much grass, he said.
84
It'll be fine, I said.
85
The sheep is very small.
86
He looked again at the picture and he said, She's small, but she isn't very small.
87
Then he said, Look, she's sleeping.
88
I thought, This boy understands my pictures.
89
Chapter 3 A Planet On the second day, I asked the little prince,
90
Where do you come from?
91
But he did not answer me.
92
He always asked me lots and lots of questions, but he never answered my questions.
93
What's that thing? he asked.
94
It isn't a thing.
95
It's my plane, I said.
96
It flies in the sky, but it crashed yesterday.
97
Did you fall out of the sky? he asked.
98
Yes, I did, I said.
99
Oh, that's funny, he said.
100
That's very funny.
101
Then he laughed and laughed, and I was angry, because I did not like his laugh.
102
Then he said something strange.
103
You came down from the sky, too.
104
Which planet are you from?
105
I started to understand this strange boy.
106
I'm from this planet.
107
Earth, I said.
108
Where do you come from?
109
He did not answer me.
110
He wanted to talk about my plane and his sheep.
111
But I knew something about him now.
112
He came from a very small planet.
113
Every day I learned a bit more about the little prince and his planet.
114
I also learned about his journey to Earth.
115
I do not want to forget anything, and I want you to learn about it too.
116
I will tell you the story, and I will draw pictures.
117
But you must remember something.
118
I am not very good at drawing, but I will try hard.
119
I will not draw a picture of my plane, because that is too difficult.
120
Here is my drawing of the little prince on his very small planet.
121
On the third day, the little prince told me about his problem with trees.
122
First, he asked me,
123
Do sheep eat little trees? yes I said sheep eat most things good
124
he said my sheep will eat the baobabs I was very surprised
125
baobabs are very big trees I said your sheep couldn't eat a baobab lots and lots of elephants couldn't eat one Baobab.
126
The little prince laughed.
127
That's funny, he said.
128
My planet is very small.
129
Could the elephant stand on top of other elephants?
130
He laughed and laughed and I drew him a picture.
131
Then he thought hard, and he said, Baobabs are small trees.
132
Then they grow up and they become big trees.
133
Of course, I said.
134
But why do you want the sheep to eat the small baobabs?
135
He was surprised.
136
Don't you understand?
137
He said.
138
My planet is very small, and there are lots and lots of small baobab trees.
139
My sheep must eat them, because I can't have big trees on my very small planet.
140
Big trees will hurt my planet, and people must look after their planets.
141
I understand, I said.
142
It's bad to have too many big trees on a small planet.
143
He said, draw me a beautiful picture of some very big baobab trees on a small planet, please.
144
You can show it to people on Earth.
145
Yes, I said, then people will understand.
146
Baobabs are bad for planets.
147
I worked very hard on my drawing, and here it is.
148
On the fourth day, the little prince told me about the sunsets on his planet.
149
That morning he said to me, I love sunsets.
150
Let's go and see one.
151
But we can't, I said.
152
We have to wait.
153
What do we have to wait for?
154
He asked.
155
We have to wait until the end of the day, of course, I said.
156
He looked very surprised.
157
Then he started to laugh.
158
I'm stupid, he said.
159
I'm on Earth, not at home.
160
I understood.
161
On Earth, a big planet, we can see a sunset in one country.
162
But we cannot see a second sunset in another country one minute after the first sunset.
163
On the little prince's planet, a very small planet, he could sit in his chair and watch a sunset.
164
Then he could move his chair and watch another sunset.
165
One day, he told me, I watched 43 sunsets.
166
He also said, sunsets are very beautiful, and beautiful things are important.
167
But sunsets are sad too.
168
You saw 43 beautiful sunsets, I said.
169
Were you sad that day?
170
But he did not answer me.
171

172

178
Chapter 4 The Flower On the fifth day,
179
the little prince said, Sheep eat small trees, I know.
180
Do they eat flowers, too?
181
My work on my plane was very difficult, and I did not want to talk.
182
I had to work on it quickly, because I had a big problem.
183
I did not have much water, and I was very thirsty.
184
I answered quickly.
185
Sheep eat lots of different things.
186
But do they eat flowers?
187
he asked.
188
Yes, no, I don't know, I shouted.
189
It's not important.
190
What do you mean, not important? he said.
191
Of course it's important.
192
His face was white, and he looked very worried.
193
I have a beautiful flower on my planet.
194
She's my special flower, and I look after her, he said.
195
I don't want your sheep to eat my flower.
196
Then the little prince started to cry, and I became worried.
197
It was dark now.
198
I forgot about my plane, and I forgot how thirsty I was.
199
I wanted to cry too.
200
I held him in my arms and I said to him, Don't worry, I can help you.
201
I will draw a muzzle for the sheep.
202
It will cover the sheep's mouth.
203
Then the sheep cannot eat your flower.
204
Thank you, said the little prince.
205
He was better now, and I started to work on my plane again.
206
He talked, and I learned a lot about his flower.
207
There were other flowers on his planet.
208
They were very simple and common flowers.
209
But this new flower was special.
210
She's beautiful, and I love her, he said.
211
Look after me, she said to me, and I looked after her every day.
212
The little prince looked after her, and he looked after the planet, too.
213
He was with her for her first sunrise and her first sunset.
214
He gave the flower water and he covered her with glass every night,
215
but she did not often say thank you.
216
The little prince became frustrated with the flower because she was never happy and she was often angry with him.
217
Then the little prince told me very sadly,
218
One day my flower said to me, Don't look after me.
219
I don't need you.
220
This made me sad.
221
I stopped my work on the plane again and looked at the little prince.
222
I left my planet because my flower didn't need me, he said.
223
On my last day there, I cleaned my volcanoes and I gave water to her.
224
She said to me, don't cover me.
225
I don't need a cover.
226
I was surprised, but I didn't cover her.
227
Then she said, I love you, you know, but I don't need you.
228
Go away.
229
Now.
230
I was very sad, and she was very sad.
231
Goodbye, I said to her.
232
But she did not speak to me again.
233
Then he said, I know something now.
234
Her words were angry, but they were not the most important things.
235
She made me happy because she was beautiful.
236
Her beauty and her fragrance were unique, and that was important.
237
I was too young to understand.
238
Chapter 5.
239
Four Planets I sat next to the little prince, and he told me the story of his journey.
240
Here it is.
241
Some birds helped him to fly away from his planet.
242
They carried him across the sky.
243
He visited four very small planets, and he met some very strange grown -ups.
244
There was a king on the first planet, but he was alone.
245
There were no other people.
246
The king said to him, You can do lots of things for me.
247
The little prince asked, Why?
248
And the king said, Because I am a king.
249
And the little prince said, No, thank you.
250
And he quickly left that planet.
251
On the second planet, there was a man.
252
He had a big book, and he wrote lots of numbers in it.
253
What are you doing?
254
the little prince asked him.
255
I'm writing down the number of stars in the sky.
256
They're my stars, the man said.
257
Why are they your stars? the little prince asked.
258
Because I write down the number of stars on my paper, he said.
259
The little prince thought, This man has numbers in a book.
260
He doesn't have stars.
261
I have volcanoes and my flower on my planet.
262
A lamplighter lived on the next planet.
263
He had one lamp.
264
His planet was very small, and the days and nights went very quickly.
265
He had to light the lamp and put it out every minute because the planet was very small.
266
This was very strange, but he was a good man and the little prince liked him.
267
The man on the fourth planet was a writer.
268
I know about all the planets, he said.
269
I write books about them.
270
I have three volcanoes and a flower on my planet," the little prince said.
271
Flowers die, the writer said.
272
Flowers aren't interesting, but my books are interesting.
273
The little prince became very sad.
274
Why did I leave my planet? he thought.
275
But he asked the writer.
276
Where can I go next on my journey?" Earth is an interesting planet, said the writer.
277
Go there.
278
Chapter 6 The Snake The little prince told me the next part of his story.
279
He traveled to Earth, the fifth planet on his journey.
280
He looked around him and said, Earth is a very big planet,
281
but there are no people on Earth.
282
Then he looked down and saw a beautiful yellow snake on the sand.
283
Good evening, he said to it, because he wanted to say something.
284
Good evening, the snake said to him.
285
Why are there no people on this big planet?
286
he asked it.
287
The snake said, You're in a desert in Africa.
288
There are no people here.
289
But Earth is very big,
290
and you will find many people in other places.
291
The little prince sat down, and he looked up at the sky.
292
Look, that's my planet, he said.
293
It's beautiful, said the snake.
294
Why aren't you on your planet?
295
Why are you here?
296
I'm here because I have a special flower on my planet, he said.
297
I left there because she doesn't need me.
298
I understand, said the snake.
299
Where can I find the people?
300
asked the little prince.
301
I'm lonely in the desert.
302
You can be lonely with people too, the snake answered.
303
The little prince looked at the snake for a long time.
304
Then he said, You look strange.
305
You're very long and thin, and you don't have any feet.
306
Maybe I am long and thin, said the snake, but I am strong.
307
I can send you away from here.
308
The little prince did not say anything.
309
You're ssssad, but I can help you," said the snake.
310
How can you help me? asked the little prince.
311
The snake moved its body quickly around the little prince's leg, and it opened its mouth.
312
I can send you back to your planet one day.
313
I can bite you, and you will go home.
314
And then they were quiet.
315
They did not say anything more.
316
Chapter 7 The Roses The little prince walked on through the desert,
317
and he met only one flower.
318
Good morning, said the little prince.
319
Good morning to you, said the flower.
320
Where are all the people?
321
the little prince asked.
322
People?
323
I don't know, said the flower.
324
I see people sometimes, but they're difficult to find.
325
They move with the wind, you know.
326
Flowers stay in one place.
327
But people move around.
328
Life is difficult for them, I think.
329
Goodbye, said the little prince.
330
Goodbye to you, said the flower.
331
The next morning, the little prince walked up a high mountain.
332
I will be able to see the whole planet and all the people from the top, he thought.
333
But he only saw more mountains from the top of the mountain.
334
Hello!
335
He shouted.
336
Hello!
337
Answered the echo. Who are you?
338
Asked the little prince.
339
Who are you?
340
Answered the echo.
341
Please, be my friends.
342
The little prince said.
343
I'm very lonely.
344
I'm very lonely.
345
answered the echo.
346
What a strange planet, thought the little prince.
347
You can't see the people, and they aren't very intelligent.
348
They don't answer you.
349
They say your words again.
350
At home, I had my flower, and she always spoke to me.
351
He walked away from the mountains, and after a long time, he came to a road.
352
Maybe I will see some people now, he thought, and then he saw a garden.
353
In the garden, there were thousands of flowers.
354
Hello, he said.
355
Hello to you, hello to you, hello to you, hello to you, they said.
356
The little prince looked at the flowers and he was very surprised.
357
They all look the same as his special flower on his planet.
358
Who are you? he asked them.
359
We are roses, we are roses, they told him.
360
He was surprised and very sad.
361
Now he knew his flower was a rose.
362
And she was not special because there are thousands of roses.
363
He fell on the ground and he cried.
364
Then the little prince heard a voice.
365
Good morning, it said.
366
He looked up, but he could not see anyone.
367
Good morning, he said.
368
Where are you?
369
I'm here, under the apple tree, said the voice.
370
I can see you now, said the little prince.
371
Who are you?
372
You're very beautiful.
373
I'm a fox, said the fox.
374
Chapter 8 The Fox Please play with me,
375
said the little prince to the fox.
376
I'm very sad and lonely today.
377
My flower isn't special because she's the same as all the other roses.
378
I can't play with you,
379
said the fox you must tame me first what does time mean the little prince asked
380
it means become my friend answered the fox there are lots of little boys
381
and you're only one of them you aren't very interesting because you aren't special to me.
382
You must become my friend and become special.
383
Then I'll play with you.
384
I'm beginning to understand, said the little prince.
385
I know a special flower, and she tamed me, I think.
386
Maybe she did, said the fox.
387
Now look at the golden corn over there and I'll tell you more about being a friend.
388
I'm not interested in corn now.
389
because I'm a fox.
390
I don't eat bread, but I'll learn to love the golden corn.
391
You have golden hair, and you're going to be my friend.
392
I'll say, every time I see the golden corn, I'm happy.
393
I'm happy because the corn is the same color as my friend's hair.
394
I understand a bit more, said the little prince.
395
Then the fox said, Please tame me and become my friend.
396
How can I do that?
397
asked the little prince.
398
Well, answered the fox, you must sit down on the grass over there.
399
Say nothing and I'll watch you.
400
Then, tomorrow you must come back.
401
Sit on the grass near to me, but not too near.
402
You can talk to me, but you mustn't make me frightened.
403
On the next day, come back again.
404
You can sit very near me, and we can talk.
405
We'll be friends.
406
I'd like that, said the little prince.
407
I'd like to tame you.
408
And, the fox said, come at the same time every day.
409
That's a good thing to do.
410
Tell me, I'm coming to see you at four o 'clock in the afternoon tomorrow.
411
I'll be happy between three o 'clock and four o 'clock, because you're going to come.
412
I understand, said the little prince again.
413
Then, the little prince came back each day and he tamed the fox.
414
Then one day the little prince said, I must go now.
415
That makes me sad because I'm your friend.
416
I'm your special fox, said the fox.
417
I'm going to cry.
418
Well, said the little prince, you wanted me to tame you.
419
That's true, answered the fox.
420
But you're going to cry, said the little prince.
421
It wasn't good to tame you.
422
Yes, it was, because we're friends, said the fox.
423
I can look at the golden corn now and I can be happy.
424
The corn is special now because your hair is golden.
425
Then he said, go to the garden again and look at the roses.
426
Then come back here and say goodbye to me.
427
The little prince went to see the roses again and he understood something.
428
The roses in the garden were not special because they were not his friends.
429
On the day he met the fox, the fox was not special.
430
But the fox was special now because they were friends.
431
The rose on the little prince's planet was special too, because they were friends.
432
He went back to see the fox.
433
Goodbye, the little prince said.
434
And goodbye to you, the fox said.
435
But first, I'll tell you some important things.
436
They're very easy to understand.
437
Your heart sees the important things in life, but your eyes don't see them.
438
My heart sees the important things in life, but my eyes don't see them, said the little prince.
439
Your rose is special because you tamed her.
440
She's your friend, said the fox.
441
My rose is special because I tamed her, said the little prince.
442
And you mustn't forget this, said the fox.
443
You must always look after your special things.
444
I must always look after my special things, said the little prince.
445
Chapter 9 The Well Eight days after my plane crashed in the desert,
446
I became very worried.
447
I could not fly my plane, and there was no more water.
448
It was very hot, and now I was very thirsty.
449
The little prince started to tell me more about his journey.
450
The fox, he said.
451
My friend, I said.
452
Please, don't tell me any more.
453
Why not? asked the little prince.
454
Because I'm very thirsty, I said.
455
I'm going to die, because I don't have any water.
456
I'm also thirsty, he said.
457
Let's find a well.
458
And he started to walk.
459
I thought, we won't find a well in the desert, but I started to walk too.
460
We walked for many hours.
461
Night came, and we could see the stars in the sky.
462
We did not talk.
463
He was tired, and I was tired too.
464
He said, These stars are beautiful because there's a flower.
465
You can't see her, but she's up there.
466
That's true, I said.
467
And the desert is beautiful, he said.
468
It's beautiful because there's a well.
469
You can't see it, but it's there.
470
You're right, I said.
471
Things are beautiful because of other things.
472
We can't see the other things, but they are there, and they are important.
473
The little prince was very tired and I carried him across the desert.
474
He slept in my arms and I looked down at him and I thought,
475
he's very small and light and I can't see the important part of him.
476
I walked on across the desert until the sky became light.
477
And then I saw a well.
478
I put the little prince down near the well and he woke up.
479
This is very strange, I said to him.
480
Look, there's a bucket and a rope to pull the bucket up from the well.
481
He laughed and then he took the bucket.
482
It fell down into the well.
483
I pulled the rope very slowly and the heavy bucket came up again with water in it.
484
I need a drink, said the little prince.
485
I held the bucket and he drank from it.
486
Then I drank too.
487
The water was very good.
488
You must draw a muzzle for the sheep now, said the little prince.
489
I drew the muzzle and the little prince laughed at my drawing. But I was worried.
490
Why did the little prince want the muzzle now?
491
Then he said, The birds brought me near to this place.
492
Tomorrow it will be one year.
493
Did you want to come back to the same place?
494
I asked.
495
The little prince did not answer, because he never answered questions.
496
But his face went red.
497
His answer is yes.
498
I thought.
499
I did not understand, but I was very sad.
500
I started to speak again, but he said quickly, You must finish your work on your plane now.
501
Come back here tomorrow evening.
502
I'll wait here for you.
503
Chapter 10 The End The next day I finished my work on the plane.
504
I could fly home now.
505
In the afternoon, I walked back to the well.
506
The little prince was on top of an old wall near the well, and I could hear his voice.
507
Yes, he said, it's the right day, but this is not the right place.
508
Another voice answered, but I could not hear the words.
509
Then the little prince said, Come to the right place tonight and wait for me.
510
But please, don't hurt me very much.
511
Now go away.
512
Then I saw something on the sand near the wall, and I was frightened.
513
It was a yellow snake.
514
Why did you talk to that snake?
515
I asked the little prince.
516
but he did not answer.
517
I came close to him.
518
He looked up at me very sadly, and he put his arms around me.
519
You can fly back to your home today, he said.
520
I was surprised.
521
How did you know that?
522
I asked him, but he did not answer.
523
I'm going home today too, he said sadly.
524
It's a difficult journey, but I must see my flower again.
525
She's special, and I must look after her.
526
And I have the sheep, and her box, and the muzzle.
527
I could not speak.
528
I was very sad.
529
Then I said, Little prince, I love your laugh.
530
The little prince laughed quietly, and he said, That's good.
531
You can remember my laugh, and you can remember me.
532
I'm going home to my star.
533
You can look at the stars every night.
534
You can be happy, because I live up there.
535
You'll see my star, and you'll think of my laugh.
536
He laughed and laughed.
537
Then he stopped and he said, Don't come with me to the snake tonight.
538
It will be better.
539
I don't want to leave you, I said.
540
I don't want the snake to bite you, he said.
541
He was worried.
542
I won't leave you, I said.
543
That night he walked quickly away from the well, but I ran after him.
544
He said, Ha!
545
There you are.
546
Then he held my hand and we walked across the desert together.
547
You were wrong to come, he said.
548
It will be sad.
549
You'll think he is dead, but it won't be true.
550
I could not say anything.
551
Do you understand?
552
He said.
553
My body is too heavy.
554
I can't take it with me.
555
We could not speak.
556
And he cried.
557
Then he said, We're near the place now.
558
My flower needs me.
559
I have to look after her.
560
well I'll go now said the little prince
561
he stood up and he began to walk away from me I could not move
562
then I saw the yellow snake on the sand close to him it moved quickly and it bit his leg
563
At first, the little prince just stood there.
564
Then he fell slowly and quietly.
565
Now, after six years, sometimes I am not sad, and sometimes I am happy.
566
Do you think about the little prince often, you ask me?
567
And here is my answer.
568
Yes, I look up at the stars and I remember the little prince and his flower and our sheep.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
