Produktbeschreibung
This is an uplifting and positive true story about a dog who became blind and deaf, and how he coped with the handicap. He did not lose his sweet disposition, become bitter, or afraid. He learned to trust his family to take care of him, watch over him, and others to not take advantage of his handicap. Rather, he used his other faculties to overcome his lack of hearing and sight to conduct a normal warm and friendly dog's life. At the same time, his human family has to learn to adapt too, ensuring his safety and well being. The story line also offers us the opportunity to teach the kids how to explore an event and reach an understanding of it in a systematic way. Two such examples: first with the dog biscuits, and then with the steps leading in and out of the house.
Autorenporträt
In parallel with his high school education, Dan Gielan graduated from the Israeli Conservatory and Academy of Music with a degree in piano and composition. Following his compulsory military service he entered the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, and graduated with a Bachelors of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. He then came to the United States to pursue an MBA degree at Columbia University in New York, and has remained in the US since.. During his career in the U.S. Dan founded and managed three Information Technology companies, lectured extensively at universities and professional symposia, and was recognized as one of the pioneers of the IT industry. In a previous book, Zero-Zero (1998), Dan warned of two threats to modern society: our over-reliance on uncontrolled computer systems in all facets of modern existence, and the loss of personal privacy, both of which have come to pass as issues central to our lives today. His book Creating a Homeland (2018) covered the true story of two European Jewish Zionist families who immigrated to Palestine under rule of the British mandate, and through both clandestine and overt actions helped the creation of the State of Israel.
