About The Book

(Bilingual English-German edition) A wealthy merchant's prize possession is a beautiful bird. Believing that he loves the exotic creature too much to set it free, the merchant discovers that animals are sometimes better at learning by example than humans. This is one of a series of illustrated books for the young written by the Afghan philosopher and educator Idries Shah, whose collections of narratives and teaching stories have captivated the hearts and minds of people from all walks of life. It belongs to a rich storytelling tradition from Afghanistan, Central Asia and the Middle East that is more than 1,000 years old. These tales are more than entertaining; they are designed specifically to foster thinking skills and perception. They suggest in their structure and in the movement of their characters ways of looking at difficulties that can help solve them. Children will learn that it is good to observe others in order to learn, and that sometimes the actions of others are not all that they first seem to be.

(Zweisprachige Ausgabe Englisch-Deutsch) Der wertvollste Besitz eines wohlhabenden Kaufmanns ist ein wunderschöner Vogel. Während er glaubt, dass er das exotische Tier zu sehr liebt, um es freizulassen, lernt der Kaufmann, dass Tiere manchmal besser durch ein Beispiel lernen können als Menschen. Dies ist eines aus einer Serie illustrierter Kinderbücher des afghanischen Philosophen und Lehrers Idries Shah, dessen Sammlung von Erzählungen und Lehrgeschichten die Herzen und Gemüter aus allen Lebensbereichen in ihren Bann gezogen haben. Es gehört in die reiche Geschichtenerzähler-Tradition Afghanistans, Zentralasiens und des Mittleren Ostens, die über 1000 Jahre alt ist. Die Kinder lernen, dass es gut ist, Andere zu beobachten, wenn man etwas lernen will und dass manchmal die Taten der Anderen nicht das sind, was sie zunächst erscheinen.

About The Author

Shah, Idries: - "Idries Shah spent much of his life collecting and publishing Sufi classical narratives and teaching stories from oral and written sources in the Middle East and Central Asia. The tales he retold especially for children are published by Hoopoe Books in beautifully illustrated editions and have been widely commended - by Western educators and psychologists, the U.S. Library of Congress, National Public Radio and other media - for their unique ability to foster social-emotional development, thinking skills and perception in children and adults alike. Told for centuries, these stories express universal themes from the cultures that produced them, showing how much we have in common and can learn from each other. As noted by reviewers, such stories are more than just entertaining; familiarity with them provokes flexibility of thought, since each one contains levels of meaning that unfold in accordance with an individual's experience and understanding.Idries Shah widmete einen Großteil seines Lebenswerkes der Sammlung und Veröffentlichung klassischer Sufi-Erzählungen und Lehrgeschichten aus mündlich überlieferten und schriftlichen Quellen im Nahen Osten und Zentralasien. Die von Hoopoe Books in wunderschön illustrierten Ausgaben veröffentlichten Geschichten, die Shah speziell für Kinder nacherzählt hat, wurden von westlichen Pädagogen und Psychologen, sowie der U.S. Library of Congress (US-Bibliothek des Kongresses), dem anerkannten Radiosender National Public Radio und anderen Medien für ihre einzigartige Fähigkeit gelobt, die sozial-emotionale Entwicklung, das Denkvermögen und die Wahrnehmung bei Kindern und Erwachsenen gleichermaßen zu fördern. Diese seit Jahrhunderten erzählten Fabeln behandeln universelle Themen aus den Kulturen, aus denen sie stammen, und zeigen, wie viel wir gemeinsam haben und voneinander lernen können. Wie die Rezensenten feststellten, sind diese Art von Geschichten mehr als nur unterhaltsam. Die wiederholte Auseinandersetzung mit ihnen fördert flexibles Denken, denn jede Geschichte enthält mehrere Bedeutungsebenen, die der Leser/die Leserin je nach Lebenserfahrung und Verständnis für sich entdecken kann."
