If you love reading books, you must know about the book The Little Prince. It’s a famous novel written by a French writer. As one of the best-selling books in history, it has been sold as many as 200 million copies in 253 languages and dialects（方言）. Now, around seventy years after the birth of the book, an American director has found a way to make it into a 3D animated film(动画片).
The book tells the story of a pilot, called The Aviator, who crashes（撞击）into the desert and meets a young prince there. However, in the film, the story starts years after the crash when The Aviator is much older. He has got a new neighbor called The Little Girl, whose mother wants her to get ready to enter the grown-up world. Slowly The Aviator shares his story with The Little Girl by writing it down and sending her a page at a time. The pages are complete with the pictures in the book, speaking about his time in the desert and taking The Little Girl to an amazing world where anything is possible.
China is the first country in the world to see the film in two versions—in Chinese and English. The film shows The Little Girl’s life and tells The Little Prince’s story at the same time in a beautiful way.
Huang Lei, who voices the film together with his 9-year-old daughter, says the film is like a childhood dream which is lost by most adults in this stressed-out society.
“The most touching part is that every one of us was a good-natured kid like the Little Prince, and it’s a pity that this good characteristic（品质）goes away as time flies.”he says.

C. The Aviator takes her to an amazing world.

Minos was a cruel king. Whenever he was bored, he would attack （进攻）a nearby island called Athens. In order to get peace. King Aegeus of Athens made a deal with King Minos. If Minos didn’t attack Athens, he would send seven boys and seven girls to Crete every nine years to be eaten by the Minotaur.

When arriving in Crete,Theseus met King Minos' daughter called Ariadne. She fell in love with him and wanted to help him. So when the children were sent to the Minotaur. Ariadne gave Theseus a ball of string（细绳）and a knife. Theseus left a line of string behind him when he entered the maze. After he killed the monster, he followed the string and got out of the maze. Ariadne was waiting outside. They quickly ran away together before Minos could catch them.
However, on the journey home, Theseus was so full of joy that he forgot to change the color of the sails. As soon as King Aegeus saw the black sails, he was so upset and jumped into the sea. Since then, the sea has been called the Aegeus Sea in memory of King Aegeus.
