In 1942, famed French aviator and author, Antoine de Saint-Exupry was looking for a quiet place to write and complete his book, The Little Prince. He found it in a mansion on Long Island near the village of Northport. Only a few people knew the details of what happened while Saint-Exupry was writing his masterpiece. One was Adele Breaux, the French teacher from Northport High School whom Saint-Exupry hired to teach him English. Many years later, Adele set out to write a book to record the facts of those details for the world to know and remember. However, in doing so, she left out the most important fact of all -- she fell in love.Inspired by the memories and recollections from three of Adele's closest friends, this story is unique in that there is little information available about the time Saint-Exupry was writing The Little Prince. Adele Breaux, being one of Saint-Exupry's few yet frequent visitors to the mansion, saw first-hand his master work in progress, and came to know him well during that time.Those months in 1942 that Adele shared with Saint-Exupry were something she spoke often with to her friends, well into her declining years. It was obvious to them that he had more than made a significant impression on her life. He had her heart.
