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 eighty years after the birth of the book, an American director has found a way to make it into a 3D animated film. The book tells the story of a pilot(飞行员), 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 finished with the pictures in the book, speaking about his time in the desert and taking The Little Girl to a surprising world where anything is possible. China is the first country in the world to see the film in two languages—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 grown-ups 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 nature goes away as time flies," he says. 8.
