Yes! It was a story about a prince who was stranded in a desert after a great war.  He was very lonely, but then he met a fox, and the fox became his friend and guide.  A snake warned him that he couldn’t always trust the fox.  The prince tried to return home, but he got lost, and was finally rescued by an airman.

That sounds about right. I remember loving it as a kid. Seems to have been a popular book.

Indeed! It was originally written in French in the 1940’s, and then translated into English in the 50’s, then it became an animated Disney movie, and there are more modern adaptations in film, books, and theatre.

It is a charming little story. The illustrations in the original book, are great.
