vv CHAPTER ONE Journey to Istanbul It is early morning on a sunny spring day in April. Heathrow Airport, London, is busy, as usual. Hundreds of people are arriving, leaving, or waiting for planes. In the Departure Lounge of Terminal One, a man is sitting reading a newspaper. He does not like airports. There are too many people, and he is always nervous when he flies. He looks at his watch impatiently. Then he hears the announcement over the loudspeakers. 'British Airways announce the departure of Flight BE570 for Istanbul.

CHAPTER 5 – ELEPHANTS

It is six years after my meeting with the little prince. When I think about him, I am sad. But I write about the little prince, because I don’t want to forget him. It is sad when you forget a friend. Not everybody has a friend.

This is the reason why I have paper and colours in my hands now. It is difficult to draw for me when I am old. But I want to do it.

I want to make my pictures very good. But I am not sure if I can do it. One picture is OK, but another picture is not very good.

CHAPTER 1 – HAT

The book says, “Snakes eat the whole animal. And they sleep for six months.”

I think about the life in the forest. I make my first picture. This is my picture number one.

I show my fantastic picture to one person. And I ask this person, “Are you scared?”

This person answers, “How can I be scared? It is a hat.”

My picture is not a picture of a hat. It is a picture of a big snake. An elephant is inside the snake. Then I make my picture number two. The picture shows the inside of the big snake.
