Synopsis "The Bird's Relative / Vogelverwandtschaft: Bilingual English-German Edition / Zweisprachige Ausgabe Englisch-Deutsch"

(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.
