(Bilingual English-Dutch edition) A young fox’s ingenuity and perseverance enable it to escape from a clever trap set by a man. This engaging story can inspire children to face challenges directly and to overcome obstacles in their path - and even to make use of those obstacles to solve problems. Adapted for children by Idries Shah, it is one of hundreds of Sufi developmental tales he collected from oral and written sources in Central Asia and the Middle East. Sally Mallam’s illustrations provide delightful and imaginative depictions of the characters. For more than a millennium, the story of the man and the fox has entertained young people and helped foster in them the ability to examine their assumptions and to think for themselves.(Tweetalige Engels-Nederlands editie) Een man laat een jonge vos geloven dat hij hem een kip zal geven. De vos zit in de val, maar door vindingrijkheid en doorzettingsvermogen ontsnapt hij. Het lezen van dit verhaal inspireert kinderen om uitdagingen direct aan te gaan, en zelfs om de obstakels op hun pad te gebruiken om problemen op te lossen. Dit verhaal behoort tot de rijke en oude verteltraditie van Centraal-Azië en het Midden-Oosten. Hier herverteld door de auteur en pedagoog Idries Shah, maakt het deel uit van een reeks geïllustreerde boeken voor de jeugd. Deze verhalen zijn bedoeld om het denkvermogen en de waarneming te bevorderen. Op een onderhoudende manier laten de verhalen kinderen kennismaken met interessante aspecten van menselijk gedrag en helpen ze hen deze patronen in het dagelijks leven te leren herkennen.
