Synopsis
On the day a boy is born, his parents are visited by a wise man who says, "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 name him Benaam, which means Nameless. The story tells how the boy seeks, and eventually finds his own name - and also gives away an old dream he doesn't want - for a wonderful new dream. This book is one of a series of illustrated Teaching-Stories by Idries Shah, stories which 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 this story gives children is the idea that it takes patience and resolve to achieve one's goals in life. Mona Caron's beautiful illustrations embellish this unusual and captivating story, presenting the wonder of this hidden world to both children and adults. يوه ور� ماشوم زيږيږي، د هغ� مور پلار يو هوښيار سړي ته �ي، چ� ورته وايي "دا ډ�ر ډ�ر مهم هلک دی، او زه به يوه ور� ده ته مهم څه ورکړم، خو هغه ته به اول نوم ورکړم. نو لط�اً دی ته اوس نوم مه ورکوئ" نو دوی ي�، ب� نومه، پريږدي، او ب� نومی ي� يادوي. دا کيسه بيانوي چ� څرنګه هلک خپل نوم پس� ګر�ي او پای ک� ي� مومي - او ورسره پخوانی خوب چ� نه ي� غواړي - پر يوه نوي په زړه پوری خوب بدلوي. دا کتاب د ادريس شاه رسامي شوو تعليمي کيسو برخه ده، هغه کيس� چ� له زرګونو کلونو راهيس� ي� زړونه او ذهنونه له �ان سره ساتلي دي. دا کيس� داس� جوړی دي چ� , (Bilingual English-Pashto 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.

    The book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.
