The (English and Pashto Edition) Farmer's Wife by Idries Shah
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 ښځې کيسه ښيي چې څرنګه يوه ښځه د زمکې په يوه سوړه کې مڼه له لاسه ورکوي او د هڅو يوه لړئ پيلوي چې مڼه بيرته ترلاسه کړي. د ماشومانو خوښيږي چې له ذهنه په هماغه ترتيب کيسه وکړي، او کله چې کيسه د تمو خلاف له ناڅاپي پيچ (تاو) سره مخ شي، نو هغوی يو مهم درس زده کوي چې څرنګه ستونزې مبتکرې حل کړي.
د روز ماري سانټياګو ښکلي رسامي اصل کيسه -- دا رواجي کيسه له سلګونو کلونو راهيسې په منځني ختيځ او مرکزي آسيا کې بيان شوی -- راژوندئ کوي، بلکه په عين وخت کې دې په زړه پورې کيسې ته ساعتيری چاپيريال ورکوي.
