As each day passed I would learn, in our talk,

something about the little prince's planet, his departure from it, his journey.

The information would come very slowly, as it might chance to fall from his

thoughts. It was in this way that I heard, on the third

day, about the catastrophe of the baobabs. This time, once more, I had the

sheep to thank for it. For the little prince asked me abruptly — as if

seized by a grave doubt — "It is true, isn't it, that sheep eat little

bushes?" "Yes, that is true." "Ah! I am glad!" I don't understand why i' was so important that sheep sould eat little bushes. But the little prince added: “Then it follows that they also eat baobabs?" I pointed out to the little prince that baobabs

were not little bushes, but, on the contrary, trees as big as castles; and that

even if he took a whole herd of elephants away with him, the herd would not eat

up one single baobab. The idea of the herd of elephants made the little prince

laugh. "We would have to put them one on top of the other," he said.

But he made a wise comment: "Before they grow so big, the baobabs start

out by being little."
