Produktbeschreibung
(Bilingual English-German edition / Zweisprachige Ausgabe Englisch-Deutsch) Wanting badly to have a son, the Queen of Hich-Hich consults Arif the Wise Man on the matter. But because she fails to follow his precise instructions, she gives birth to a half-boy, whom she calls Neem. That Neem is able to make himself complete by an act of cleverness, negotiation and compromise teaches children much more than the expected, usual lesson of bravery. This enchanting tale, complete with fairies and a fire-breathing dragon, is marvelously and magically illustrated by Midori Mori and Robert Revels. Neem the Half-Boy is one of an illustrated series of Sufi teaching stories from the Middle East and Central Asia that were collected and adapted for children by Idries Shah, and that have captivated hearts and minds for more than a thousand years. The stories are designed to help children learn to examine their assumptions and to think for themselves. Die ¿Königin von Hich-Hich möchte unbedingt einen Sohn haben und konsultiert Arif den Weisen in dieser Angelegenheit. Aber weil sie Arifs genaue Anweisungen nicht befolgt, bringt sie einen Halbjungen zur Welt, den sie Neem nennt. Dass es Neem gelingt, sich durch einen Akt der Klugheit, Verhandlung und Kompromisse zu vervollständigen, lehrt Kinder viel mehr als die erwartete, übliche Lektion des Mutes. Diese bezaubernde Geschichte mit Feen und einem feuerspeienden Drachen wird von Midori Mori und Robert Revels wunderbar und magisch illustriert. Der halbe Junge Neem gehört zu einer illustrierten Reihe von Sufi-Lehrgeschichten aus dem Nahen Osten und Zentralasien, die von Idries Shah gesammelt und für Kinder adaptiert wurden und die Herzen und Köpfe seit mehr als tausend Jahren fesseln. Die Geschichten sollen Kindern helfen, ihre Annahmen zu überprüfen und selbstständig zu denken.&a

Autorenporträt
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.
