What else can be said about the fabulous Ferdinand? Published more than 50 years ago (and one of the bestselling children's books of all time), this simple story of peace and contentment has withstood the test of many generations. Ferdinand is a little bull who much prefers sitting quietly under a cork tree-- just smelling the flowers--to jumping around, snorting, and butting heads with other bulls. This cow is no coward--he simply has his pacifist priorities clear. As Ferdinand grows big and strong, his temperament remains mellow, until the day he meets with the wrong end of a bee. In a show of bovine irony, the one day Ferdinand is most definitely not sitting quietly under the cork tree (due to a frightful sting), is the selfsame day that five men come to choose the "biggest, fastest, roughest bull" for the bullfights in Madrid.
Ferdinand's day in the arena gives readers not only an education in the historical tradition of bullfighting, but also a lesson in nonviolent tranquility. Robert Lawson's black-and-white drawings are evocative and detailed, with especially sweet renditions of Ferdinand, the serene bull hero. The Story of Ferdinand closes with one of the happiest endings in the history of happy endings--readers of all ages will drift off to a peaceful sleep, dreaming of sweet-smelling flowers and contented cows.

This is a favorite of my youth that I now love to share with my 4-year-old son.

Format:Taschenbuch
The translation of this book is one of the worst ones I have ever seen. The text lacks accents, is full of major gramatical errors and includes literally translated sentences that have no meaning in Spanish. The publication of this translation is insulting to my language and my community.

This is an enchanting and timeless tale, and is everything a children's book should be. The message is not simply one of peace and commitment to an ideal, but also one of basic karma and the need for all to follow the Golden Rule.
The Story of Ferdinand lets children know it is okay to stay true to their characters, and will encourage them to think their way out of situations, rather than muscle their way out. Ferdinand's peaceful and contented nature is something all human beings should all aspire to. Having been stung by many bees in my youth, mainly while traipsing barefoot through clover and accidentally stepping on them, I have great sympathy for our hero and the situation he finds himself in.

I recommend this classic for all ages and peoples, especially in our troubled times. It has a wonderful philosophy of life message; and even if readers choose not to apply the lesson to real life, the charming tale of Ferdinand is worth reading simply for its power to delight and entertain.

Mala edición y traducción
La lectura del libro no motiva por la falta de ritmicidad, de claridad en las oraciones, por las palabras separadas incorrectamente. Lesen Sie weiter...

Bull Fighting?
I ordered this book when I purchased "Ping" because it was rated 0 to 4 year olds. Stupid of me but I just read it to my two year old without first reviewing it. Lesen Sie weiter...

Smell the Flowers
A lasting story. I now find myself describing my contemplative one year old..."he'd rather just sit and smell the flowers".

wonderfully sweet and fun
I've loved this story from the first time I read it and I'm thrilled to find it's still around. It's as gentle and ironic as Winnie the Pooh and has the same tongue in cheek... Lesen Sie weiter...
