He was at home on the little asteroid B 612, where his rose with four thorns bloomed and two volcanos served to warm up the breakfast.
When the pilot met the “Little Prince” he had visited already six other planets. Different grown-ups lived there. On the Earth the “Little Prince” met before other creatures.

The “”Little Prince” told this story when the pilot and he were in the desert for eight days and had nothing to drink anymore.
