It is not surprising, therefore, that children possess remarkable philosophical abilities. Naturally inquisitive and with a thirst for knowledge, pint-sized scholars require minimal prompting before delving into the profound questions of life, regardless of how strange or impractical they may seem. Plato \u0026amp; Co. takes readers on a captivating journey, introducing both children and curious adults to the lives and works of renowned philosophers, ranging from Socrates to Descartes, Einstein, Marx, Freud, and Wittgenstein. Each book in the series features an engaging and often humorous narrative that presents fundamental principles of philosophical thought alongside vibrant color illustrations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Lao-Tzu, or the Way of The Dragon, we embark on a journey with the ancient Chinese philosopher who founded Taoism. From the moment a comet announced his birth to the inspired composition of the Tao Te Ching, the Book of the Way, more than fifty years later, we witness Lao-Tzu's life unfold. An old sage from birth, Lao-Tzu dedicates his existence to unraveling the endless book of the world. However, his frustration with the silliness of human order, impatient kings, and greedy individuals grows, prompting him to embark on a quest for the Way. Along his journey, he encounters clouds that solidify under his feet, a cave guarded by a golden monkey, and the venerable Confucius himself. Ultimately, he discovers the wisdom of the dragon residing deep within his own heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 186g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 156 x 220 x 12 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783035800968\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miriam Henke,Jerome Meyer-bisch,Jordan Lee Schnee","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095398314234,"sku":"9783035800968","price":10.46,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/f3d31630272f31121878c727317478fd.jpg?v=1631505254","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/lao-tzu-or-the-way-of-the-dragon","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
