[ Chapter 5 ] 　　 　　　　　　 - we are warned as to the dangers of the baobabs 　　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 did not understand why it was so important that sheep should 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.
