Synopsis
The story of The Farmer's Wife tells how a woman first loses an apple in a hole in the ground, and then attempts a series of efforts to get it back. Children enjoy learning to repeat the sequence from memory, and when the story takes a sudden turn, contrary to all expectations, they also learn important lessons on how to resolve problems creatively. The strikingly beautiful illustrations by Rose Mary Santiago invoke the origins of the story -- this traditional story has been told for hundreds of years in the Middle East and Central Asia -- while at the same time lending a uniquely playful atmosphere to this very amusing story. د بزګر ښ�� کيسه ښيي چ� څرنګه يوه ښ�ه د زمک� په يوه سوړه ک� مڼه له لاسه ورکوي او د هڅو يوه لړئ پيلوي چ� مڼه بيرته ترلاسه کړي. د ماشومانو خوښيږي چ� له ذهنه په هماغه ترتيب کيسه وکړي، او کله چ� کيسه د تمو خلا� له ناڅاپي پيچ (تاو) سره مخ شي، نو هغوی يو مهم درس زده کوي چ� څرنګه ستونز� مبتکر� حل کړي. د روز ماري سانټياګو ښکلي رسامي اصل کيسه -- دا رواجي کيسه له سلګونو کلونو راهيس� په من�ني ختي� او مرکزي آسيا ک� بيان شوی -- راژوندئ کوي، بلکه په عين وخت ک� د� په زړه پور� کيس� ته ساعتيری چاپيريال ورکوي., The story of The Farmer's Wife tells how a woman first loses an apple down a hole, and then attempts a series of efforts to get it back. Children enjoy learning to repeat the sequence from memory, but, when the story takes a sudden turn contrary to all expectations, they also learn important lessons about how to resolve problems creatively.The strikingly beautiful illustrations by Rose Mary Santiago invoke the origins of the story -- this traditional story has been told for hundreds of years in the Middle East and Central Asia -- while at the same time lending a uniquely playful atmosphere to this very amusing story., (Bilingual English-Pashto edition) This story tells how a woman loses an apple down a hole in the ground and then makes a series of attempts to retrieve it. Children love chanting the action sequence of this cumulative tale from memory, but when the plot takes a sudden turn that's contrary to all expectations, they also learn important lessons about the nature of problem solving and discovery. The strikingly beautiful illustrations by Rose Mary Santiago invoke the origins of the story - which comes from the Sufi tradition and has been told for hundreds of years in the Middle East and Central Asia - while at the same time lending a uniquely playful atmosphere to this very amusing tale.

    Excellent prices on used books in great condition. Shipped out quickly. Product condition is accurate to rating in listing. Thanks! NOTE: For this particular book (I ordered several), it came in a soft cover rather than hard cover as the listing stated. I contacted the seller and they responded promptly. They agreed that it was a listing error and provided me with a full refund for this book (without return required) proving they are both a responsible and trustworthy seller.
