Description

The Queen of Hich-Hich fails to follow the instructions given to her by Arif the Wise Man, and, as a result, gives birth to a half-boy. Neem makes himself complete by an act of cleverness, negotiation and compromise. This story helps children learn flexibility and perseverance.

 

For more than a thousand years this story has entertained young people and helped to foster in them the ability to examine their assumptions and to think for themselves.This tale is one of the many hundreds of Sufi developmental stories collected by Idries Shah from oral and written sources in Central Asia and the Middle East, presented here as one of a series of illustrated children's books.

 

La reine de Hich-Hich ne parvient pas à suivre les instructions que lui a données Arif le Sage, et de ce fait, donne naissance à un demi-garçon. Grâce à un acte d'intelligence, de négociation et à force de compromis, Niim va réussir à se compléter. Cette histoire apprend aux enfants à s'adapter et à être persévérant.

 

Depuis plus de mille ans, cette histoire amuse les enfants et les encourage à analyser leurs idées et à penser par eux-mêmes. Ce conte est l'un des centaines de contes soufis destinés à favoriser le développement de l'enfant recueilli par Idries Shah de sources orales et écrites d'Asie centrale et du Moyen-Orient. Il est présenté ici dans une collection de livres illustrés pour enfants.
