...to remember Antoine de Saint-Exupery!


100 years ago today, the world saw the birth of one of the best writers. Antoine de Saint-Expurey is best remembered for his novel The Little Prince and his book about aviation and adventure. He was a successful commercial pilot before World War 2. Antoine joined the french air force on the outbreak of war. After a spell of writing in the United States, he joined Free French Forces. Unfortunately he disappeared on a reconnaissance flight over the Mediterranean in July 1994.

Happy Birthday Antoine! :)
