Description

Here is a collection of 30 witty stories about Habib, an Arab folk hero who has appeared under many names for hundreds of years. Each tale contains a twist, written to make  you smile or laugh aloud with delight.

A light touch, a flexible mind, and a bit of a perverse sense of humor are your tickets into this exotic, timeless world. It's a world of fun for the moment and giving better than you got, not of heavy psychology and serious moralizing. In this world of marvels and belief in marvels, whether the little guy wins or loses depends on how well he uses his wits. 

Sometimes cunning, sometimes credulous, Habib has a unique way of thinking that will enable you to see life in a new, wonder-filled way. Many of the stories convey moral lessons, while others offer pure amusement, bringing laughter either at Habib's cleverness or at his lack thereof. Be prepared for an entrancing journey into "one day," an adventure that will transport  you far from your everyday life and sensibility, returning you to them with refreshed eyes and a lighter step.
