PART
II
Every tale teaches a lesson. Below is a summary of the lessons
contained in each tale.
1.
The King and the Thief:
You can't judge others until you live and experience their
struggles and have an understanding of their perceptions
in life.
2.
King Argoz and the Wisdom of the Blue Violet:
Everyone is the way they are (physically, mentally, etc…)
because they have lessons to learn and a purpose to fulfill.
By understanding our place in this world we can plan our
lives accordingly to make our existence a more fulfilling
one, rather than one of chaos and struggle.
3.
The Merchant Learns a Life Lesson:
Life is about being happy within yourself. Although having
money helps, true happiness comes when a sense of purpose,
love and creative impulse are present. It all comes from
within. That’s why there are people who have very little,
but are extremely happy, while are miserable.
4.
The King and the Miraculous Healing:
The biggest disability is a closed heart and a closed mind.
Life is full of potentials even when you think your life
is worthless because of physical or environmental limitations.
Your mind, heart and spirit have the power to overcome any
obstacles.
5.
King Argoz and the Street Girl:
Every person in this world matters, no one should be left
out. A small help from everyone goes a long way to help
someone have a better life.
6. Princess Maya's Plan:
Life is all about our inner perception and attitude as they
reflect our inner mind-set. Make it a point to let the people
in your life feel appreciated, loved and recognized for
their contributions in your life.
7. King Ultan and His 3 Sons - Download
this story now:
Everyone has a purpose and is crucial in the scheme of life.
Respect others. A small idea can make an incredible impact
on other's lives. You can make a difference.
8. Looking Inside:
Happiness starts from within. We spend most of our life
looking for happiness by accumulating material things to
build a sense of peace and security without remembering
that true happiness comes from within.

WHY IS THIS BOOK MARKETABLE? (Market Prospective)
“This book will appeal to children aged 5 to 12+, young
adults and more importantly, parents. This is because parents
have a genuine interest in helping their child develop into
better human beings, and equip them with tools to enable
them to think and make decisions for themselves.
This contention is supported by parents' and teachers' feedback
of the book.
“I
cannot tell you what a joy it has been to get this series
of books into my home. As a loving mom and author I am always
looking for books that entertain, educate, and open up opportunities
for conversations with my daughter. The Legends of Altai
series does just that. Every tale in the book takes you
away to a story that is amazing and thoughtful. This one
is a must for every child’s collection and adult too!”
Jill McKellan author of Brophey’s Forest Adventures
"There
is no literature material that teaches children life values
in this form to children in today's marketplace. This book
should become part of the curriculum in every school. It
teaches great lessons and builds integrity, empathy and
values in young minds. A must have book for parents!"
Lisa Szczepanik, Teacher and Consultant for Educational
Services
“These
beautifully crafted, uplifting stories are deceptively simple,
but contain deep wisdom. A must have book for all the children
in your life and also for the child within you.” Frances
Wilks, author of 'Intelligent Emotion’
“An
inspiring book that has the power to help children become
better, wiser, more compassionate human beings.” Glenn
Adams – Public Speaker, Business Coach to Mercedes-Benz,
BMW, Kenworth amongst others, but more importantly father
of three."
AUTHOR PROSPECTIVE:
“By the time a child has reached 6 years of age, his/her
neurological synapses and neuro-pathways have been formed.
This neurological map within a child 's brain creates their
mindset, attitude and how they will see themselves and others
in life. While they gain more experiences, knowledge and
wisdom after the age of 6, their character and personality
would have already been formed and hardwired in their brain.
It
is, therefore, vitally important for adults help shape children's
receptive mind and character into one that has values, morals,
compassion, empathy, courage and respect.
The
future of our society and this planet depends upon this
task. We cannot have a healthy and functional society with
dysfunctional children. They are our future.
You
can see this inter-dependability between children early
development and society by how the different generations
(Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, X,Y,Z etc) were educated
and behave. Want to change society? Change the child educational
development between 2 and 6!
This
book was especially created when it was discovered that
neither bookstores nor other channels supplied materials
that specifically addressed character training in a language
that children could understand (eg: Story Telling). The
Legends of Altai series is a step towards this educational
process and is devoted in developing better and more loving
human beings." Paolo
