The Boy Without a Name / El niño sin nombre: English-Spanish Edition (Teaching Stories)
Description:
(Bilingual English-Spanish edition) On the day a boy is born, his parents are visited by a wise man who tells them, “This is a very, very important boy, and I'm going to give him something marvelous one day, but I will have to give him his name first. So please don't give him a name yet.” So they named the boy Benaam, which means “nameless.” The story tells how he seeks and eventually finds his own true name, and how he also gives away an old dream that he doesn’t want – and gets a wonderful new dream. This 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. Among the many insights The Boy Without a Name can provoke is the idea that it takes patience and resolve to achieve one’s goals in life. Mona Caron's beautiful watercolor illustrations embellish this unusual and captivating story, presenting the wonder of this hidden world to both children and adults.\nEl día que nace el niño, un sabio visita a sus padres y les dice: “Este es un niño muy, muy importante, y un día le voy a dar algo maravilloso, pero tendré que darle su nombre primero. Así que, por favor, no le deis un nombre todavía." Por lo tanto, llamaron al niño Benaam, que significa "sin nombre." Esta historia cuenta cómo el niño busca y finalmente encuentra su nombre verdadero, y cómo regala un viejo sueño que no quiere y obtiene otro nuevo y maravilloso. El cuento pertenece a la serie ilustrada de historias de enseñanza sufíes originarias del Medio Oriente y el Asia Central, que fueron recopiladas y adaptadas para niños por Idries Shah. Estas historias, que han cautivado corazones y mentes durante más de mil años, están diseñadas para ayudar a los niños a aprender a examinar sus suposiciones y a pensar por sí mismos. Entre las muchas ideas que El niño sin nombre puede provocar está el concepto de que se necesita paciencia y determinación para lograr las metas de la vida. Las hermosas ilustraciones en acuarela de Mona Caron embellecen esta inusual historia presentando la maravilla de un mundo oculto tanto a niños como a adultos.
