I have been finding this bilingual version of Le Petit Prince (“The Little Prince”) helpful for learning French. Here are the included audio files (Google Drive) read clearly in French and English by Nadine Eckert-Boulet and Karen Savage respectively at a slow pace.

Printing is in black & white with the original illustrations. The publishing person opted to translate it himself rather than adopting Katherine Woods’ 1943 translation, presumably due to copyright. He describes it as being “as literal as possible whilst remaining idiomatic and natural English. […] Ideas for various difficult passages have been shamelessly stolen from Katherine Wood’s excellent 1943 translation.”
