Description
The Man with Bad Manners by Idries Shah is a story about a young boy's plan to change an adult's behaviour. With the help of the villagers, the plan succeeds, benefiting everyone involved. This tale teaches valuable lessons about initiative, negotiation, conflict resolution and cooperation. Rose Mary Santiago's illustrations add a delightful touch to the story, which is part of an illustrated series of Sufi teaching stories from the Middle East and Central Asia. These stories have been captivating hearts and minds for over a thousand years, helping children learn to examine their assumptions and think for themselves. The Man with Bad Manners is a thought-provoking story that can help children deal with difficult situations and provide something to hold on to.
