A pilot stranded in the desert awakes one morning to see the most extraordinary little fellow standing before him. “Please…’ asks the stranger, “draw me a sheep…’And the pilot realises that when life’s events are too difficult to understand, there is no choice but to succumb to their mysteries. He pulls out a pencil and paper … and thus begins this wise and enchanting fable that, in teaching the secret of what is really important in life, has changed the world forever for its readers.
