The Adventures of Manfred and Anton - ebook
A breathtaking adventure for children and parents.
The Adventures of Manfred and Anton is not a story. Nor is it a children’s novel. It is somewhere between the two, and it would be more precise to say that it belongs in a new category - a genre that holds children aged 6 to 10 in its grips while conspicuously nurturing their value system, their respect for their parents, their capacity to form interpersonal relationships, and their desire to discover the wonders of the natural world. Almost inexplicably it also enhances their self-respect, creativity, powers of imagination, self-confidence, courage, and resilience. Having said all this, we’ve by no means said it all….
"This is a one-of-a-kind book. Try not to think of it as just a story. Oh, it’s much more. Wild adventures, thrills, and lessons await. The main characters are kids like you. What happens to them could just as easily happen to you. What they learn is worth remembering, because it will come in handy.
Let’s find out what wild beasts Manfred and Anton had to fend off, how the Big Race ended, what the dark cellar was hiding, how Laura welcomed a little newcomer, what the secret gift was, and a whole lot more. Let’s get to know Manfred and Anton’s adventure-filled lives."
It doesn’t matter whether parents read it to their children or schoolchildren read it to themselves-The Adventures of Manfred and Anton is an entertaining, enthralling read, whether read by a child or read to a child as a bedtime story. It is recommended for kids from five and six to twelve. While some scenes in each chapter are accompanied by striking, one-of-a-kind illustrations, the focus is not so much on wowing readers with images but, rather, on stirring their imaginations. With a richly detailed narrative that truly brings the setting and the stories to life, the book would stand on its own even without the illustrations. In contrast to the simple turns of phrase we’re used to encountering in books for children, The Adventures of Manfred and Anton unfolds in language that not only ensures an arresting style but also enhances children’s vocabularies and their powers of expression.
The Adventures of Manfred and Anton is much more than a simple children’s book. It doesn’t merely entertain but can also help kids to:
Develop their vocabularies, imaginations, and powers of empathy
Conquer their fears and inhibitions
Reinforce their perseverance, willpower, and desire to prevail-leaving them more motivated
Enhance their social relationships (with siblings, across genders, and within groups)
Bolster their ability to distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate, right and wrong-in short, to restore their moral foundations
Strengthen their relationship with their parents-to be more obedient, show more respect, and model their behavior accordingly
"Any child can readily make the realistic stories of Manfred and Anton their own, and with their tense pacing and enthralling storytelling, the overarching message hits home. This fine book is a must for parents who seek to give more to their children than an entertaining means of passing the time." Benedek Rab, school teacher & administrator
"Through these short episodes in the life of his book’s two protagonists, the author poses problems and situations that comprise the defining elements of every child’s life. I was pleased to discover that these conflicts do not go unresolved, but that the characters solve them with the clarity and ingenuity of the children that they are." Konor Sajti, UNICEF Youth Ambassador
