Read The Little Prince

Saint-Exupery flying the mail over the Sahara and the Andes, and crashing in the Libyan desert.

Down the rabbit hole with the Cheshire Cat and the Queen of Hearts; nonsense with logic underneath.

The boy who would not grow up, Neverland and Captain Hook.

Dorothy, the yellow brick road and a wizard who is a fraud; the American fairy tale.

Five golden tickets and Willy Wonka; Dahl's factory of sweets and punishment.

A wooden puppet who lies, the Fox and the Cat and the belly of the shark; darker than Disney.

Four children through a wardrobe into Narnia, and Aslan on the Stone Table.

How Narnia was made and where the lamp-post came from; the prequel.
