Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. In this whimsical story, a tightrope walker must balance more than just his body as he faces changes that threaten his way of life by embracing lessons he has learned from the world around him.Once, there was a tightrope walker. For forty years, he travelled the world in wind-coloured clothing and a bright red bandana, never staying in one town for more than a day. At each new place, he would pluck a single strand of his impossibly long hair and walk across it, with balance, courage, faith, and grace. As he began, he would recall a wise saying he had once heard: 'The world is a very narrow bridge. The secret is not to be afraid.'As the years went on, he noticed his hair growing thinner and thinner. He sought every remedy, but nothing worked to replace the many hairs he had pulled out. The more he performed, the fewer there were, until not one remained and the tightrope walker had to find a whole new way to touch the sky.'Timeless.enduring wisdom.'
