De jongen zonder naam / Безіменний хлопчик
(Bilingual English-Dutch 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.
(Tweetalige Engels-Nederlands editie) Op de dag dat een jongen wordt geboren, krijgen zijn ouders bezoek van een wijze man die zegt: "Dit is een heel, heel belangrijke jongen, en ik ga hem op een dag iets geweldigs geven, maar ik moet hem eerst zijn naam geven. Dus geef hem alsjeblieft nog geen naam." Dus noemen zijn ouders hem Benaam, wat Naamloos betekent. Het verhaal vertelt hoe de jongen zijn ware naam zoekt en uiteindelijk vindt - en nog veel meer. Dit boek maakt deel uit van een serie geïllustreerde onderwijsverhalen van Idries Shah, verhalen die al meer dan duizend jaar harten en geesten boeien. De verhalen zijn bedoeld om kinderen te leren hun vooronderstellingen te onderzoeken en zelf na te denken. Onder de vele inzichten in dit verhaal is het idee dat er geduld en vastberadenheid nodig is om je doelen in het leven te bereiken.
