Description
"The Mountain and The Goat," written by Siamak Taghaddos, is an enchanting children's book that tells the story of an unexpected encounter between the protagonist and a singing goat, which leads to a journey filled with decision-making, resourcefulness, and ultimately success.
This beautifully illustrated modern-day fable is inspired by an ancient Persian poem, aiming to teach children the value of being resourceful and proactive in life. It emphasizes the importance of seizing opportunities, building upon successes, and making choices that lead to desired outcomes. Siamak Taghaddos, an entrepreneur who emigrated from Iran at the age of 6, infuses his personal experiences and the wisdom gained from a Persian poem taught by his father into this story. His goal is to inspire a generation of resourceful children who understand the significance of taking action and leveraging their abilities and relationships to achieve their dreams.
The book is designed to be engaging and thought-provoking, with simple language and transparent characters that make it accessible and educational for young readers. "The Mountain and The Goat" is more than just a story; it's a tool for parents and educators to instill a can-do attitude and entrepreneurial spirit in children from an early age. Taghaddos hopes the book will impact children in the same way the Persian poem influenced his life, teaching timeless lessons of progression, resourcefulness, and the importance of embracing life's opportunities for lasting success.
