I forgot one ... "Les conquerants de l'impossible" ... one of the guys, Thibaut came from the middle ages ... he had fallen in some azote stuff and was found by the other dudes like 800 years later ... awesome ... kinda like "Encino man" with Pauly Shore.

Le Petit Prince is classic. I could read it 50 times and pick up something new every time.

As everybody is writing about their favorite books I might write about one of my least favorite ones: Stupeur et Tremblements from Amelie Nothomb. Despite winning a few awards in France reading it was a waste of time in my opinion. It seems the author holds a grudge against Japan. Wouldn't recommned it.
