The book The Little Prince begins with the story when the character of this story is still small. One time he drew a boa that ate an elephant. However, when he showed the picture to adults, they told him to stop drawing and start learning other things, such as geometry, arithmetic, geography, grammar, and so on. Eventually the character stopped drawing and grew up to become a pilot. As a pilot, he continued to carry his first picture, and sometimes discussed the picture with his friends. But no single adult understands the picture.

In the next chapter, the pilot is stranded in the Sahara desert when the plane falls. When he was repairing his plane alone in the middle of the desert, a little prince came to him and asked him to draw a sheep, without further explanation. The pilot claimed that he could not draw sheep and only showed pictures of boa snakes he had made. Strangely, the prince understood the picture, but still asked for a picture of the sheep. After several pictures were initially rejected by the prince, the pilot drew a box and said that there was a sheep in it. The prince can see the sheep in the box and receive it.

A few days together, the pilot began to understand that the little prince came from another planet, a small Asteroid the size of a house and had three volcanoes (one dead and the other active), a rose, and several other things. The asteroid is called Asteroid B-612, and was first seen by a Turkish scientist dressed in strange clothes. Because of the strange clothes, nobody cared about the astronomer. But then the Turkish dictator told his people to dress in European style. With this outfit, then people pay attention to the discovery of the Turkish astronomer.
