Produktbeschreibung
(Bilingual English-French edition / Edition bilingue anglais-français) When a good-natured lion, king of all the animals, sees his reflection in a pool of water for the first time, he gasps at the fierce creature staring back at him and is too frightened to drink - until, finally, he overcomes his fear. Children learn through the lion how to deal positively with the fears and inhibitions that so often arise from situations they may not yet understand. Originally told by the 13th-century Sufi poet Jalaluddin Rumi, The Lion Who Saw Himself in the Water is one of a series of teaching stories that were collected by Idries Shah and that have been used in the East for hundreds of years as educational instruments to help children understand life. Ingrid Rodriguez's beautiful illustrations bring this children's version to life with warmth, humor and a distinctive richness of detail. Lorsqu'un lion de bonne humeur, roi de tous les animaux, voit son reflet dans une mare d'eau pour la première fois, il halète devant la féroce créature qui le regarde, et est trop effrayé pour boire - jusqu'à ce que, finalement, il surmonte sa peur. Les enfants apprennent à travers le lion à gérer positivement les peurs et les inhibitions qui surviennent si souvent dans des situations qu'ils ne comprennent peut-être pas encore. Raconté à l'origine par le poète soufi du XIIIe siècle Jalaluddin Rumi, Le lion qui se vit dans l'eau fait partie d'une série d'histoires-enseignement qui ont été rassemblées par Idries Shah et qui ont été utilisées en Orient pendant des centaines d'années comme instruments pédagogiques pour aider les enfants à comprendre la vie. Les magnifiques illustrations d'Ingrid Rodriguez donnent vie à cette version pour enfants avec chaleur, humour et une richesse de détails distinctive.

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.
