小王子前言的第一句话的翻译不太懂。

I ask the indulgence of the children who may read this book for dedicating it to a grown-up.这句话翻译为请孩子们原谅我把这本书献给一个大人。
我觉得我无论如何也把这句话翻不成这样。。求解，indulgence不是放纵、特权的意思吗。

I ask the indulgence of the children who may read this book for dedicating it to a grown-up

1.ask the indulgence of sb for 请求某人原谅
2who may read this book 是一个定语从句修饰the children

你好！ indulgence作名词有‘宽容’的意思 仅代表个人观点，不喜勿喷，谢谢。
