The Wisdom of Ahmad Shah: An Afghan Legend (Teaching Stories)
Some two hundred and fifty years ago the great King Ahmad Shah Durrani ruled Afghanistan. His magnificent empire extended from eastern Iran to northern India, and from the Amu Darya to the Indian Ocean. Known to his people as Ahmad Shah Baba (Ahmad Shah, our father), the king was an outstanding general and a just ruler. But he was vexed with troubles and needed to find someone with the right qualities to help him — but how? Among other things the story provides a framework through which young readers can consider and discuss the qualities needed for a useful and happy life. Additional pages include a short biography of Ahmad Shah, a map of the Durrani Empire, and suggested discussion points.
