Description

When the good-natured Share the Lion, King of all the animals, sees his reflection in a pool of water, he gasps at the fierce creature staring back at him and is too frightened to drink – until finally, he learns to overcome his fear. Children learn through Share how to deal positively with the fears and inhibitions that so often arise from situations they may not yet understand.

 

This is one of a series of stories collected by Idries Shah – a Teaching-Story – used for hundreds of years in the East as an educational instrument to help children understand life. This story was originally told by the 13th century Sufi poet Jalaluddin Rumi.

 

Ingrid Rodriguez's beautiful illustrations bring the story to life with warmth and humor and a distinctive richness of detail.

 

Quand le bon lion Sher, Roi de tous les animaux, aperçoit son reflet dans l'étang, la créature féroce qu'il y voit le fait sursauter, et il a trop peur pour boire… jusqu'à ce qu'enfin, il parvienne à surmonter sa peur. Les enfants apprennent avec Sher à aborder leurs peurs et leurs complexes, fréquents dans des situations nouvelles ou inconnues, de manière positive.

 

Cette histoire fait partie de la collection réunie par Idries Shah — une histoire-enseignement — dont on se sert depuis des siècles comme instrument pédagogique en Orient pour aider les enfants à comprendre la vie. À l'origine, celle-ci fut racontée par le poète soufi Jalaluddin Rumi au 13e siècle.

 

Les très belles illustrations d'Ingrid Rodriguez, pleines de chaleur, d'humour et de détails particulièrement riches, donnent vie à l'histoire.
